Program areas at Green Forests Work
While fueling the energy needs of the nation, the practice of surface mining has severely impacted more than 1 million acres of the appalachian region's environment through the conversion of forestland into other land uses. Green Forests Work (gfw) has the ability and expertise to restore healthy, productive Forests on previously mined lands to benefit the region, the nation, and the global environment. In fye 2023, gfw and our partners participated in 40 tree planting projects/events which resulted in the planting of approximately 1. Million seedlings across more than 2,200 acres. In 2023, gfw and our partners were able to directly involve 1500 volunteers in these tree planting events, educating them about environmental problems and potential solutions.
