The short explanation of this alert was:
Sequoia National Forest is under threat from unmanaged Off-Road Vehicles (ORV). The Forest is proposing to open 5,500 acres of roadless areas for ORV use, resulting in the harassment of wildlife and the disruption of wonderful backcountry recreation, including hiking, camping, horseback riding, and fishing. Everyone has a right to access our public lands, but no one has the right to abuse these lands or ruin the experience of others enjoying America's wild places.
Unrestricted motor vehicle use on the Sequoia National Forest has created unplanned roads and trails. The result has been erosion, watershed and habitat degradation, as well as long-term detrimental impacts to wildlife and cultural resources. Dirt bikes, all-terrain vehicles (ATVs), and other off-road vehicles are major sources of air, water and noise pollution and rank among the most serious human-made threats to safety and health on public lands and waters.
To preserve the wild character of roadless areas on the Sequoia National Forest it is essential that no new trails are allowed in these special places. Write your letter now, then click "Send this message."
