In the northeastern U.S., climate change concerns are fueling public movements against forest harvesting, despite experts’ assertion that harvesting is an important tool in climate adaptive forest management. Based on qualitative analysis of 32 interviews with urban and rural foresters (n = 15 and n = 17, respectively) across the region, this project examines how foresters in different professional contexts (e.g. urban or rural; public or private) perceive opposition to harvesting as a barrier to climate adaptive management; and how they are responding. We demonstrate that foresters use different strategies to increase public acceptance of management, including education, political advocacy, and public collaboration. While the use of these strategies appears critical to advancing adaptation of the Northeast’s forests, foresters’ professional contexts seem to guide their choice of and success with different strategies, calling for greater research into how different forester groups’ behaviors impact the adaptive capacity of the region overall.
