Thanks to our recent Federal Court for Friends of Leadbeater’s Possum Inc. 🌳 and years of campaigning by FoLP and many other groups including Wilderness Society, Bunnings will stop selling timber logged by VicForests. #Forests #SpringSt theguardian.com/environment/20…
Thank you Bunnings Warehouse! Next step is to stop selling NSW public native forests that are home to koalas and other threatened species. theguardian.com/environment/20…
Good on you Bunnings Warehouse for dropping VicForest supplied wood from your shops and sticking to your commitment of "Zero-tolerance" of illegal timber sourcing.🐨🌳 The State gov should stop wasting tax payers $ on legal appeals and bring forward transition funds for industry
Heads up @GreenStarGBCA ! One could wonder whether timber sources from Vicforests even meets PEFC International / AFS Ltd requirements!? #VicAsh #FLBPvVicForests Wilderness Victoria
Why on Earth is a government organisation actively working against government policy using tax payer $$ Tim Pallas
Here's our National Campaigns Director Amelia Young talking about Bunnings recent decision to drop VicForests wood abc.net.au/triplej/progra…
A long-running court case to protect old growth forests from logging is part of the sorry saga of definitional loopholes, weak standards, non-enforcement -- & bloated wood volumes. You can support FFRC & Environmental Justice Australia amazing work, by chipping in here: chuffed.org/project/old-gr…
View from the tree sit over misty forests of Errinundra East Gippsland. Too precious to log, & the bulldozers would've moved in without brave actions of community member still up the tree. Dan Andrews the senseless destruction needs to stop & transition brought forward.
Amazing visit to the Great Forest NP just outside Melbourne. Spectacular stands of mountain ash - the tallest flowering trees in the world. This forest area is unbelievably biodiverse, home to multiple endangered species and only an hour from Melbourne!
