For Mahan, control of the Caribbean was essential to control of the canal, which was essential for the protection of all three coastlines of the United States.

1.Some of the modern-day threats to redwoods include climate change; human land uses not compatible with forest health (such as development and conversion to vineyards); intense fires; people's increasing detachment from nature; illegal marijuana cultivation; and burl poaching.

2.We protect redwoods by purchasing redwood forests and the surrounding lands needed to nurture them. Another way we protect forests is by acquiring conservation easements or agreements, which grant the League the legal right to safeguard the forest from harmful land use practices forever.

Hope this help's have a great day.
