Stop Redbank Power Station
Verdant Earth is at it again - seeking to burn our forests to produce electricity.
Last year, after a mammoth community effort, we were able to stop them sourcing timber from our state forests. Now they are trying to use forests and bush from private land.
This would cause large-scale habitat loss and devastate our already at-risk ecosystems.
It would also be terrible for the climate. Burning green wood chips emits 50% more CO2 per megawatt hour of energy produced than coal, while undermining investment in genuinely clean energy.
Worth More Standing - End Native Forest Logging Our native forests are worth more standing. Native forests provide important habitat to many species and are there for the enjoyment of many different activities. With many of our forests heavily impacted by severe bushfires, we need to protect as much native forest as we can. Our native forests continue to be logged, with some being wood-chipped and exported to make toilet paper and cardboard. Native forests only make up 9% of NSW timber and are subsidised by plantation. It's clear that native forests are worth more standing and NSW should end the native forest logging now. FIND OUT MORE
Breach Watch - Citizen Science
Breach Watch is a program where ordinary citizens can help protect native forests by monitoring and reporting logging breaches. We measure tree diameters and heights, look for hollows that have been destroyed by logging, ensure habitat, nectar and giant trees are not destroyed by the chainsaws. This important work has stopped loggers in their tracks and protect native forests.
