Don't Move Firewood Web site launches

The Don't Move Firewood Web site launched today, featuring Web Design and Development by Carousel30. We created several illustrations that evoke the Forest Service posters of the 40's and 50's and updated them for the current age. These are randomly rotated throughout the site.

The Web site is based on Carousel30's own Content Management System and features moderated blogging, a calculator that tells you how much money you save if you don't bring your firewood with you, and also features several streaming videos created specifically for the project.

More about the site:

The ‘Don’t Move Firewood’ website was developed building on conversations under the auspices of the Continental Dialogue on Non-Native Forest Insects and Diseases. The Continental Dialogue is a group of organizations and individuals that cultivates and catalyzes collaborative action among diverse interests to abate the threat to North American forests from non-native insects and diseases. The website is owned by The Nature Conservancy as part of its efforts to support the actions of the Continental Dialogue.

For more information on the Dialogue please go to: http://www.continentalforestdialogue.org/

The Dialogue’s mission, vision, and agenda were developed by a group of leaders in diverse industries, universities, non-profit groups, and government agencies. The ‘Don’t Move Firewood’ website has developed through the work of a Dialogue subgroup focused on the objective: “Communicate and Market Key Ideas about Protecting Forests.”
