Description
Sweeping changes are coming for the U.S. Forest Service, which manages roughly a third of America's public land. The agency announced a dramatic overhaul of cuts, closures and consolidation. That's on top of the Trump administration's latest budget request that seeks to slash billions of dollars. But some worry it could undermine the agency's mission. William Brangham reports.
