      CAN'T LEAVE YOUR DESK?
      YOU CAN DO SOMETHING FROM RIGHT THERE!

You can take action in the epic struggle to save the last precious remnants
of what once spread from Monterey to southern Oregon--the coastal redwood
temperate rainforest. Even those who aren't able to head for the woods are
making a difference by making their voices heard and their wishes known.

      You can:

--> Write to the president and other elected officials, urging protection
of the entire 60,000 acres.
--> Phone and fax elected and appointed officials.
--> Spread the word by writing letters to the editor of your local
newspapers, offering to write a guest opinion or articles for college or
high school newspapers.
--> Donate to the cause -- lawsuits are expensive and most of the
organizations involved are nonprofits.
--> Donate supplies for base camp (see subsequent email with list of
necessities).
--> Call radio talkshows, call your local television news.
** Check out the ACTION PAGES for lists of phone and fax numbers,
addresses, etc. for contacting officials and newspapers. If you want an
email version of the web-based ACTION PAGES, send an email request to
wfg@designlink.com. The ACTION PAGES are found at:

      If you want to get OUT of that chair, you can:

--> Volunteer your time to one of the many nonprofit organizations
struggling to save the forest -- we have a lot of things you could help
with.
--> Lawyers, legal aids, and paralegals are needed by EPIC, the
organization fronting the legal side of the battle.
--> Organize an event or slide show (we can provide the slides and info).
--> Spread the word by setting up a table at a local market, etc. (we can
supply some materials).
--> Host a showing of the Headwaters Forest video at your local church or
neighborhood organization.
--> Raise consciousness at your place of work -- see if your employer would
donate supplies, funding, or would donate your time.

      FOR MORE INFORMATION ON ANY OF THESE OPPORTUNITIES,
