If you’ve ever been to Oregon, you probably think of us as a green state – a utopia filled with people who recycle, ride bicycles, and hike and fish in healthy forests filled with clear streams. But when it comes to our forests and rivers, how real is that reputation?
Pacific Rivers’ new award-winning film Behind the Emerald Curtain takes viewers beyond the scenery that most people see – beyond the “beauty strips” of trees that hide clearcuts from drivers, and behind the locked gates on the private lands that make up one-sixth of the state. There you’ll find people living with the effects of toxic pesticides sprayed from helicopters, of logging that happens right through the majority of streams, of rampant clearcutting on steep slopes causing landslides that smother streams below.  >>READ MORE>>

Wenn ich sage, dass dieses System umfassend ist, würde ich einen Euphemismus machen. Dieses System ist massiv, fertig geliefert und erfüllt, was es verspricht. Wie ich wünschte, ich hätte so etwas gewusst, als ich online anfing.

On the off chance that you've at any point been to Oregon, you presumably consider us a green express a perfect world loaded up with individuals who reuse, ride bikes, and climb and fish in solid woodlands loaded up with clear streams.

Thank you for sharing this important coverage on Oregon's logging practices. The film reveals critical issues that need to be addressed, especially when it comes to the impact on the environment and communities. It’s crucial that we bring attention to these practices and hold industries accountable for their role in harming our natural resources. National Geographic’s blog sheds light on the ongoing issues, and it's great to see such platforms supporting transparency and environmental protection. Let's hope this sparks further dialogue and action toward sustainable solutions.
