The Dogwood Alliance is the only unified response in the United States to the rapid proliferation of remote high-capacity chip mills. It is a growing network of 50 grassroot organizations from 17 states with a shared mission to halt further destruction of our native forests. The Alliance envisions sustainable, stable human communities that maintain and enhance the functioning, resiliency, and health of the region's native forest ecosystems- all of which are now threatened by accelerated clearcutting to supply high capacity chip mills. For 17 years they have brought the hawks' eye perspective to environmental protection in 10 countries and 30 states. Provide flight as a viable conservation tool to congress people, researchers, scientists, grassroots activists, press and media students, and teachers.
