It's National Forest Week! Inaugurated by the National Forest Foundation, this week is a time to celebrate the natural beauty and immense value of our nation’s 154 National Forests. These protected areas serve as places of rest, relaxation, and exploration for millions of visitors every year, and provide safe harbor for species that might otherwise be on the brink of extinction. MobilizeGreen is committed to developing the next generation of green leaders so that our National Forests continue to get the protection and care they deserve. Want to help preserve their greatness? Check out some opportunities on our job board! buff.ly/3XvC09m #Conservation #NationalForestWeek
