Victory for Lands <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=637232a493641b4e993b3ad75185be9d6accfe2228deaa0161c594040b5ca67803ecaf698661bc9a360be070d2dd539e2ee4136861b224de>
The Biden Administration and federal courts took action to protect millions of acres of lands, waters, and forests from Alaska to New Mexico in a week of wins for public lands. We saw
the Tongass National Forest safeguarded from logging and a toxic mining project cancelled in Alaska's Bristol Bay, and that was just by Wednesday.
Sierra Club's Our Wild America campaign senior director Chris Hill covered these victories and more, and what the rest of 2023 holds in store. <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=637232a493641b4e

that make hillsides more prone to erosion and lethal debris flows.
