The Pacific Coastal Temperate Rainforest is the largest swath of temperate rainforest remaining on the planet. Stretching more than 2,000 miles from lands bordering Prince William Sound, Alaska to a little south of San Francisco Bay, California, this forest is a important habitat for the region’s distinctive biodiversity and has long been a source of sustenance and cultural significance for coastal Indigenous communities. But a long history of logging, road-building and poorly-conceived government policies has seriously impacted the rainforest.
