The Natural Resources Defense Council has spent the last decade fighting for protection of the Tongass National Forest, the heart of the great Alaskan rainforest.

Last January, President Clinton announced a rule that would protect more than 58 million acres of wild areas in our national forests.

Unfortunately, the Bush administration wants to abandon the new rule and dismantle this largest public land conservation effort in our nation's history.

Speak out to save the Tongass -- 500 miles of awe-inspiring Alaska coastline that supports the world's largest concentrations of grizzly bears, bald eagles and other rare wildlife.

By law, the administration must accept public comments before it can
change the rule. The deadline for these comments is September 10th, so
please take a moment right now to SEND BUSH THE MESSAGE urging him not to reverse these landmark protections for our national forests.

Thank you for helping to save our Alaskan rainforest.

Anyone with experience with green building projects is encouraged to complete the survey.
