Create Solutions

SFK works to create solutions to these inadequate land management practices; to promote land stewardship; to enforce existing laws and regulations, including sustainable management mandates; to implement public awareness programs; and, to offer assistance to local land management agencies. SFK also seeks to promote a sustainable balance between present human needs and the needs of future generations.

Forest Monitoring

The SFK team conducts forest monitoring; initiates surveys, and gathers data on the environmental health of Sequoia resources; alerting the public and agencies to potential threats, promoting use of scientifically-based decision making; participating in agency processes and appealing those decisions where necessary; and supporting and advocating the creation of new laws, regulations and policies where existing ones are insufficient.

SFK uses education, media outreach, advocacy, volunteer monitoring, scientific analysis, dialogue and, where necessary, litigation to achieve these ends.
