This episode is part two of our Forests Over Profits series, featuring excerpts from our Forests Over Profits conference and protests this past September. If you’re not familiar with this series, here’s what you need to know:
This September, the Coast Range Association, in partnership with many other amazing organizations, organized a series of protests and a day long Forests Over Profits conference in response to a corporate timberland investment conference called, and this is their title, “Who Will Own the Forest”.
Who Will Own The Forest brings together some of the world’s biggest climate polluters, corporate clear-cutters, finance giants, and false climate solutions peddlers, to network and scheme on how to extract maximum short-term returns from while devastating our communities and the climate.
If you want to learn more about the Who Will Own The Forest conference, I would highly encourage you to go back and listen to the episode I did a few weeks back called, “Who Will Own the Forest, with Brenna Bell”, which you can find on the Coast Range Radio podcast feed.

Ok, back to this episode. Today, we’ll hear from Coast Range Association executive Director Chuck Willer. Chuck spoke about the groundbreaking work Coast Range Association has done highlighting the devastating role that wall street style capitalism has played in northwest forests, his Green New Deal for Northwest Forests proposal, and new directions his research is taking him.
