Protecting our legacy trees - Webinar

Big old trees are some of the most vital habitat in Victoria’s forests. They tower like skyscrapers, alive with Greater Gliders, Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoos and Lace Monitors. But disasters, bushfires, land-clearing and ...

Rogue Logging in areas around the future Wombat-Lerderderg National Park
Переглядів 9175 місяців тому
This is rogue logging. Branded as 'storm clean up’, trees and habitats are being razed to create new fire breaks without clear reason. And it has no oversight. Why? Because it comes under the guise of fire management. Even when it's done in forests that should be protected. These machines have now moved to parts of the Wombat Forest that are supposed to become a park. We can't sit on our hands ...
We won't let them log the Dandenong Ranges National Park
Переглядів 866 місяців тому
Our parks are meant to safeguard wildlife, landscapes, and culture. But Forest Fire Management Victoria are “disaster logging” the habitat of threatened native wildlife in forests recovering from storm events. Yellow-bellied and Greater Gliders, Powerful and Sooty Owls are present in and around the proposed logging areas. So far our pressure has led FFMV to scale back the logging from 110 down ...

Logging national parks
Переглядів 169Рік тому
This is Dan Andrews talking about the state-funded destruction of wildlife habitat. The same week he made this speech logging machines were tearing through the forest he claims isn't under threat. The Andrews Government has said they'll protect Wombat Forest in a new national park. But a promise only means something if it's kept. Call on your leaders to legislate not log our national parks - vn...

    The "science" that underpins climate change consists of wild exaggerations by UN agencies and by scientists who want research funding to keep flowing in their direction and will distort their papers to claim that there's a threat. How do we know its an exaggeration? Only about 150 scientific papers that say that a doubling of CO2 will cause less warming than the IPCC predicts, which incidentally provides data that shows that CO2 will take more than 150 years to double.

    This wood is being sold on to be burnt in fireplaces and stoves. The government has extensive scientific and medical evidence on how harmful this wood smoke is, costing our community $billions in health and premature death costs alone. The carbon and methane released is also contributing to climate change. Rather than acting to reduce harm, our environment is being destroyed to perpetuate what is largely recreational lifestyle burning. Less than 10% of homes are using wood stoves in Melbourne where most Victorians live, yet this causes more than half the harmful toxic PM2.5 air pollution caused by humans, much more than motor vehicles, according to EPA Victoria. The Victorian Government should be acting on full and honest risk assessment rather than business as usual.

    This is clearfell logging. They want the vertical trees not the 3 year old fallen stuff. Barkstead, Wombat Creek Road and Osborne Road are all 4 hectare square traditional logging coupes. They shuffle a few fallen ones around but only ever wanted the big fat healthy ones. They leave so many branches on the ground that make a mockery of their claims to be mitigating fires. The fuel load is more not less after they leave. And VicForests operated at a loss of $105m over the past 2 years. So this makes no sense on any level. Criminal stuff and not a single column inch in our lobby-group owned media.

    Aw, I didn't know you'd posted this! Nice one! And tee hee to the "bated (baited) breath" pun, which I'm sure was intended. Here're the lyrics, in case anyone hadn't worked them out: Oh, where are the Giant Spider Crabs? They’ve only arrived in dribs and drabs They were due in June on the Strawberry moon By their thousands appearing by the pier Let's hope this year isn’t fallow May they soon festoon every bayside shallow Next full moon high to our shores and coves Let Leptomithrax gaimardii come a scuttling in droves

    Fantastic video. For a long time, I thought megafires was a result of lack of prescribed burning. But this video makes a lot of sense. Forest fire management needs to align with these findings.

    There was recently a Hearing into a particular sand miner extracting sand from below the water table. The outcome of this Hearing was not made publicly available. To me this alone speaks volumes about why it is all kept secret. Disgraceful.
