Our forests deserve better than burning them for energy. Let’s stop the growth of the dangerous, destructive biomass industry.
Dogwood Alliance is a local, regional, and international champion for our Southern forests and the communities who depend on them.
The rapid spread of data centers is a serious concern. Biomass (burning forests as fuel) has been proposed to power them.
Wood pellets are the latest threat to Southern forests. Many countries burn wood pellets for electricity. They give billions in renewable energy subsidies to these energy companies. Bioenergy harms the climate, communities, and forests in our region.
We’re committed to a future that values standing forests. One that values and protects the rights of communities to live happy and healthy lives. A future that values the people and the planet.
Forest defenders are the everyday heroes who donate $5 or more each month to sustain the forest protection movement.
Justice Conservation is a pathway to just solutions. The work takes place in environmental justice communities and territories in the Southeast. Industrial logging and climate change hit these communities and tribes hard. Together, we’re building lasting, region-wide change.
