Description (excerpt):

COVID-19 has created particular hardship for rural communities across the US. Farming and forestry communities also face unique challenges as their economic future is inextricably linked with the climate. Rooted in Resilience explores the potential for legislative packages focused on economic stimulus to leverage US lands, from farms to forests, to recover and rebuild from the COVID-19 pandemic while also driving climate action.
