PLANTS | ALEX HARRIS | OLD GROWTH SOLUTIONS
Manage episode 420041015 series 2598023
Alexander is the policy lead for RE Sources’ land use and water protection programs. Alexander completed a graduate program in Environmental Policy at Western Washington University in 2022, where his research focused on how community-driven forest stewardship can help restore the Nooksack watershed. Having grown up in southern Oregon, Alexander graduated from the University of Oregon with a degree in Philosophy and Political Science. Alexander has worked for numerous conservation nonprofits on various policy issues ranging from public forest management and wildfire mitigation to ecological forest management and climate mitigation. Alexander and his partner spend most of their free time homesteading, floating the river, or rambling through the woods. Alex recently co-created a consortium of activists and advocates called the Whatcom Forest Watch, who worked hard to protect the remaining legacy old growth forests in Washington State. After months of emailing politicians, rallying and campaigning, the WFW saw a victory and the rest of the old growth legacy forests were finally protected. But keeping that victory permanent is what we need to ensure, so spreading more awareness and telling more stories are crucial.
