It is time for Australia to end native forest logging. Secure forest protection will save wildlife and is a natural solution to the climate breakdown. Rise up with us so the governments listen and take urgent action.

Make your submission now 🚨Submissions close at 5pm today!
We do not want Chinese state company MMG to drown the beautiful myrtles, ferns and wildlife of the Tarkine (as featured in #thegiantsfilm) under a 30m high dam of chemical sludge. This is no place for a toxic waste dump!
Common sense needs to prevail and unfortunately we can’t trust the #RioAlboTinto government to see the forest for the trees.
The Bob Brown Foundation has created a super how to form to do it! It literally takes 60 seconds to save this 60-million-year-old rainforest.
Do it now. 🙏 tap on our bio URL to get the link.

I was so honoured and privileged to get front row seats to hear Bob Brown speak with Hilary Harper and the filmmakers of The Giants, Laurence Billie and Rachael Antony, tonight. Such a beautiful and informative film about Bob’s journey and the beauty of our forests. Highly recommend the film if you haven’t seen it already.

All our strength to the Gumbaynggirr elders at this time. Your fight in the courts has secured a temporary halt to logging in Newry forests, NSW. Thank you.
This first image is the future we all fight for - logging machines leaving native forests.
@bellingenactivistnetwork captured images and vision as loggers moved out of Newry yesterday ahead of a courtcase scheduled for mid September.
The case in the Land and Environment Court against the logging that has been happening in culturally significant areas and bringing irreversible damage to wildlife.
Despite recordings of koalas and other endangered wildlife, FCNSW has been ripping habitat out of Newry over the last two weeks. 🌳
This past week, in Sydney, our Campaigner Doro Babeck has been bringing the plight of NSW forests to the Sydney streets. You too can join her, if you are in Sydney and want to help raise awareness and resistance to native forest logging in NSW.

Every now and then I go to Tasmania because like most mainland Aussies we know that this is a destination you go to embrace nature. To immerse yourself in a landscape that is magical. A landscape that has taken millions of years to grow
Mining company, MMG are seeking to build a second tailings dam for a zinc, copper and lead mine in the Tarkine/Takanya rainforest.
Situated in Tasmania’s north west, this small yet significant part of Australia is home to some of the most precious and rare fauna including the masked owl and Tasmanian devil. This world heritage national park is home to the giant trees that have been here for millions of years and has significant cultural connections to the Aboriginal people of this land.
In short, Environment Minister tanyaplibersek will decide on MMG’s ‘toxic dam’ going ahead.
Please go to the bobbrownfoundation for more information and your chance to help STOP THIS by signing a petition. This simple action could STOP this mine from going ahead. Action required today.

Intrepid forest defenders at the edge of Fairy Creek, Vancouver Island, where Teal Jones & smitten bedfellow the Pacheedaht First Nation are logging the remaining ancient and last western redcedars, Sitka spruce, Douglas-firs in southwest British Columbia.
Oh the hypocrisy—the Pacheedaht First Nation are slaughtering 3500 logging trucks worth of old-growth every year & sharing it with the DEVIL incarnate, Teal Jones Logging.
TinyUrl.com/bdz7ch6k
The RCMP are acting on behalf of these forest-slaughtering knaves instead of the citizenry who overwhelmingly want an end to the old-growth destruction. In fact, the old-growth is irreplaceable, ergo priceless! What part of that is not crystal clear and absolutely bloody wrong.
Name your price Pacheedaht First Nation? Live in harmony not ruination First Peoples.

We Victoruan Wildlife Advocates have been warning for month`s 6hat this is what our duplicitous, untrustworthy, LYING Victorian State Government was up to ... Greenwashing with promises to "End Native Ligging" while all the time planning to continue doing so under other names, and to meanwhile use the promised ban as excuse to "go for broke" ripping out as much ti.ber as they possibly can in what`s left of this year! The only thing g that had really been stopping them was the wet weather. As soon as it dries up, our poor endangered flora and fauna are counting the days till extinction. #Repost #VictorianExtinctionCrisis #VictoriaTheWildlifeExtinctionState #SaveGreaterGliders #SaveOurKoalas #SaveYellowBelliedGliders #saveleadbeaterspossum #savemountainpygmypossums #danthedestroyer #DanAndrewsDespisesWildlife #MoreLaborLies #FightForForests #EndNativeForestLoggingNOW

Today, a group of ten activists returned to Tasmania’s Florentine Valley, to protect these ancient forests from being destroyed by logging. One protester, Rose Sheehan, 34, locked onto logging machinery.
Over the past week, the collective efforts of over 50 concerned citizens have protested against the vandalism wrought by Forestry Tasmania’s industrial logging operations. Confronting images of enormous logs have generated a wave of international outrage at the destruction of these great forests, felling another bulwark against climate change in the process.
“Despite government attempts to criminalise peaceful protesters instead of the forest destroyers, more and more people are heading into the forests to take action to stop this devastation,” BBF CEO Steven Chaffer said.

😡 Deeply concerning that VicForests is attempting to log our precious alpine forests before the ban on native forest logging kicks in.
🌲 Our Forest Collective has been campaigning closely with regional communities to protect Victoria’s high country in the Alpine regions. These places are areas of environmental significance with incredible outdoor values and are home to a number of rare and endangered native plants.
🌲 These forests are also under threat from climate change driven bushfires and more must be done to ensure their protection.
✍️ Take action now by writing to Environment Minister ingridstittmp to demand that the government protect Victoria`s alpine forests from logging. Head to the link in our bio for a simple tool to email Minister Stitt.
