Musician, teacher. Love the human and more-than-human world. I tweet a lot about saving our native forests, we really really need to stop logging them.

[Aawa @AawaWhite]

One of my favourite forests (Toolangi) being felled while we’re in lockdown. Utterly devastating.

Hot and very cross buns.

Stop logging native forests, it’s a no brainer, even the buns know it.

[Sophie Torney @Sophie__Torney]

Our native forests are vanishing but change is coming.

Stay tuned.

Goodmorning Gipps Land! Wake up and smell the forest burning

#GunaiKurnaiCountry: FFMV have just now lit up over 1000Ha Special Protection Zones set aside for Greater Gliders and Yellow BGs. Call Min Ingrid Stitt 03 93631644. Leave message. [email protected] Why don’t #FFMV do pre or post-burn fauna or flora surveys?

[Friends of Bats and Habitat Gippsland @FriendsBats]

#GunaiKurnaiCountry Mt AlfredSF 182Ha. We fight so hard to save species from logging but #FFMV can light massive fires with no pre or postburn surveys. FFMV know here are old trees, rainforest, masked &sooty owls, koalas, gliders, bandicoots etc etc, but they burn it all anyway

Invasive plant species on the increase in Victorian Alps, raising conservation concerns https://t.co/wKcp9dieZA

[Aawa @AawaWhite]

Asthma triggered this morning because the government is burning the forests around Melbourne. This outdated practice is now known to make forests MORE flammable. Get in line with the science Vic Labor.

[Sophie Torney @Sophie__Torney]

On Sunday I visited Toolangi Forest in the Central Highlands.

The increased bush fire risk is there for all to see.

The science is clear - we need to stop native forest logging now, before it’s too late.

[Victorian National Parks Association @vnpatweets]

Melbourne Water must cease the clearing and logging of habitat in the Silvan Closed water catchment and engage ecological restoration experts in the rehabilitation of these sites not log them further.
We need greater oversight and regulation of Fire operations in Victoria

The VNPA has been given photos from within the Silvan Closed Water Catchment in the Dandenong Ranges and has deep concerns about the so called "debris clean up" operations being undertaken by @MelbourneWater and logs being delivered to saw mills 1/5

[Aawa @AawaWhite]

Can’t wait to vote for @CampbellGomeGrn tomorrow

[Merri Action for Forests @merri_forests]

@CampbellGomeGrn has fought for our native forests for years. Here he is up a tree in Treasury Gardens in solidarity with East Gippy communities opposing logging of unburnt wildlife refuges. He’s spent hours in the forest at night surveying for endangered Gliders. He has…

It’s just very hard to imagine why Labor and Libs would want to keep this disgusting racket going for 8 more years

[Dr Monique Ryan MP @Mon4Kooyong]

On Monday, I'll move a motion for the protection of native forests to be put back into national environmental laws (the Environmental Protection and Biodiversity Act, or EPBC).

[KinglakeForest @KinglakeForest]

Reader, we won.

[Jordan Crook @JCrooka]

The same day @DanielAndrewsMP announces $5 million for animal welfare issues in Victoria his native forest logging company VicForests gets done in court again for actions that could wipe our Aussie wildlife such as Greater and Yellow Bellied glider. Stop the logging Dan

[Penny Tangey @tangthe]

Just told someone that VicForests had lost a big court case and they said "Oh yes I heard about that last week" and I said "No, they lost ANOTHER one".

Getting hard to keep track.

[Merri Action for Forests @merri_forests]

VicForests needs to update their website after todays Supreme Court ruling
