Keeping the Pinelands Preview
Preview: Special | 30s
Climate change and development threaten the NJ Pinelands. People are helping them survive.
In the 20th century, the once vast forests of the New Jersey Pine Barrens were vanishing. In 1979, a controversial ban on over-development became law, saving over a million acres. But today, the Pinelands face new threats from climate change and fire suppression. To help these forests survive, people are using new ways to manage them. Collaborating with nature is the key to Keeping the Pinelands.
