Feb 18: Sierra Club/Forest Watch meeting & discussion



The Allegheny Group’s Public Lands Action Team (PLAT) will host a community meeting to help develop a plan of action and outings for the Spring.

The Forest Watch program is based on the model developed by the Allegheny Defense Project and Heartwood, and includes planning for Plant Rescue activities if necessary.  This model has been successful in stopping timber sales and other destructive activities on public lands for more than 20 years.
Cathy Pedlar, ADP Forest Watch Coordinator from Erie PA and Ernie Reed of Heartwood from Charlottesville, VA will be in attendance for this initial meeting. Bill Belitskus, ADP Board Chair and once a candidate for Congress, will speak at this event. Light refreshments will be provided. All are welcome to attend!
Join us for this afternoon discussion and strategy meeting!

4-6 pm at the Sierra Club Office, 425 N. Craig St. (Suite 202), Pittsburgh, PA 15213.  For more information contact Matt Peters at mattnedludd@gmail.com, or 412-320-0739
