Oklahoma Economic Impact Reports*
Oklahoma is one of the most diverse and geographically remarkable states in America. With plant and animal species ranging from pinyon pine and antelope in the northwest, to cypress swamps and the American alligator in the southeast, few states can match the broad spectrum of landscapes we have. Across all of these landscapes are forests and trees, shading our homes, providing oxygen, cleansing water, providing habitat for wildlife and products for people's everyday lives.
