Online Discussion on Oregon Coast Forestry Practices, April 29 Published 04/22/21 at 3:35 AM PDT By Oregon Coast Beach Connection staff (Portland, Oregon) – Equally important to tourism and local economies as the beaches, Oregon coast’s forests require even more careful planning in the face of various changes, including climate change itself. To that end, the Oregon coast group Oregon Shores Conservation Coalition presents an online panel discussion on forestry practices in the coastal region on Thursday, April 29, at 6 p.m. “The Impact of Forestry Practices on Coastal Communities and Environments” is free and open to the public. The event is part of Oregon Shores’ year-long celebration of the organization’s 50th anniversary.
