Ultimately, we have to know what we stand for and stand firm. All native forest ecosystems are worthy, all are critical, none are superfluous. We must take a firm stand against commercial resource extraction from our public lands. If, deep down you don't believe that, I'd say you're holding the movement back. If, deep down you know it's true, then stand up for it and join a new, invigorated movement of folks who also will be true.
Nature is on our side.
Righteousness is on our side. Stand firm to the end. Not now, not ever.
