Sanctuary Forest : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sanctuary Forest
The Sanctuary Forest is a nonprofit land trust that resides in the Mattole River headwaters on the northern California coast. It began in 1987 when members of the surrounding community put forth their efforts to save a 2,000-year-old redwood named “Big Red”. Sanctuary Forest now provides lifelong preservation to more than 10,000 acres of forest, rivers and wildlife corridors in California, while improving the relationship between its communities and their environment. == History == Sanctuary Forest began in 1987 within the temperate rainforest of the headwaters of the Mattole River on the northern California coast. Active community members with the vision to save the 2,000-year-old redwood, “Big Red”, that was scheduled for cutting by industrial timberland owners, launched Sanctuary Forest’s first campaign. The origin of this organization is based on the beliefs of the Redwoods Monastery, a group of Cistercian monastic women, who educated their communities on the severe threats logging has towards the environment.
