Spotted Owl Self-Defense
Timber baron, Red Emmerson, and his company, Sierra Pacific Industries, are destroying suitable habitat for the Northern Spotted Owl. Spotted owls are losing their homes and dying as a result. EPIC recently delivered a formal “notice of intent to sue” letter to Sierra Pacific Industries for violation of the federal Endangered Species Act.
Protecting Endangered Species of the North Coast
At EPIC, we intend to advocate for wolves as strongly as we advocate for all native biological diversity in Northern California. That means continuing our work to defend forests and wildlands from exploitation and destruction.
Take Action to
Save Richardson Grove
Help protect ancient redwoods from CalTrans’ plan to widen Highway 101 through this state park. Tell your California Legislators to Save Richardson Grove.
Industrial Forestry:
Reforming Corporate Logging
Industrial timber giants are threatening our forests, wildlife and watersheds. Use of highly intensive forest management practices compromise the productivity of our forestlands.
Ensuring the Integrity of Public Lands
Agencies charged with stewarding our public lands must be monitored to protect our natural legacy from destructive timber sales, mining developments, off-road vehicle use and grazing. EPIC fights for the restoration of damaged areas and defends the wildest corners of California for future generations.
