The U.S. Forest Service has treated about 4 million fewer acres than this time last year. We're way behind on thinning, prescribed fire, and related actions. CCL supports the Fix Our Forests Act to improve forest management practices and reduce wildfire risk. This legislation also provides support for firefighters on the front lines. The Fix Our Forests Act primarily focuses on permitting reform and technology adoption for improved decision-making essential to scaling up effective wildfire mitigation. The legislation also removes bureaucratic roadblocks that slow down essential forest restoration projects and integrates cutting-edge technology to modernize wildfire decision-making. 👉 https://lnkd.in/ettVWZzx

CCL has teamed up with 21 other organizations to help advance the #FixOurForests Act! Healthy forests are an important part of the climate puzzle. The Fix Our Forests Act uses smart, science-based solutions to help restore forest health, reduce wildfire risk and protect communities. That's why, alongside our friends at American Forests, Bipartisan Policy Center Action, Federation of American Scientists and more, we sent a letter to Senate leadership urging support of this bipartisan bill ➡️ https://lnkd.in/dfjbFws9

1 billion tons of carbon pollution avoided 📉 Many of the climate measures from the Inflation Reduction Act are expiring soon, after the One Big Beautiful Bill Act rolled them back. But they've still made a big difference. "Every fraction of a degree and every ton of avoided carbon pollution makes a difference," says CCL Research Manager Dana Nuccitelli.

"NOAA is now giving this year a less-than-1% chance of winding up as the warmest year on record, but a greater-than-99% chance of being among the top-five warmest years." It's not your imagination - it's getting hotter. We need to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels and move to cleaner, safer alternatives. https://lnkd.in/eqjtBZdN

America's energy demands keep growing, and so do our power bills. We need clean energy sources in the mix ASAP. https://lnkd.in/efpmHntS
