83% of native forests trees logged by the Daniel Andrews Government go to Reflex/Australian Paper. Does anyone in Victoria think this is okay? #climatechange
A table and chairs as a product of native forest logging? Over 90% of wood from a typical coupe is woodchipped or burnt.
So, this cover earns 4 stars for audacious dishonesty.
Then minus 2 for being quite boring. Which makes it -7/5. I'm using VicForests accounting methods.
1/ Last week, an important and concerning Bill passed Vic’s Parliament.🧵
The new laws will hand the Enviro Minister and her dept unchecked power over the fate of our forests.
We are deeply concerned, here’s why 👇

Hi y'all! Injunctions arising from our court case against VicForests have stopped logging in most coupes where vulnerable Greater Gliders are present. But we need to raise funds somewhat urgently for this case going forward.
If you can - please donate!

Given the decline of greater gliders since I’ve been working as an ecologist, this seems like quite a substantial win.
Doesn’t seem to have made mainstream news yet though?

“More than 250 charges issued over koala massacre near Victorian beauty spot” If VCR did its job properly these Koalas would not be dead! A bit of hypocrisy fining after the fact from the REGULATOR! https://t.co/hSD89lm9CR
Guess who?
- We run at a loss, but the govt always bails us out.
- The Federal Court found we break environmental laws, but luckily the govt just changes the law for us.
- We pay private investigators to spy on members of the public
- We log native forests for paper and pallets
The two products driving the logging of Victoria’s remaining native forests:
- hardwood CHEP pallets made by #Dormit.
- cardboard/paper products made by #Opal.
I’ll be telling #PiedimontesSupermaket I won’t be shopping there until their supply chain has an ethical makeover
