Protect the reindeer forests

(Here's a message from Matti at the Forest Rescue Station in northern Finland.)

Right now we are standing up for the forest rights of Sámi indigenous people against the greed of a state controlled logging company. Despite the fact that their reindeer forests are supposed to be protected, the Finnish government is profiting from their destruction.

Only international pressure from people like you can help defend these forests and help us win this campaign. Take action and make sure we are not alone!
