There are many ways we enjoy the forests, whether it’s camping, trail running, fishing, or hiking. There are also many different ways we can protect Southern forests and stand in solidarity with the people most affected by deforestation and climate change.
We met up with Ruddy of Global Justice Ecology Project in Hypoluxo Scrub, a Florida forest, and she told us about the unique and inspiring way she protects forests.
