Apart from the impacts on festival attendees, imagine the economic impact on people who would have been getting work/ trade out of the festival. Under climate change, these sort of impacts will just keep growing.
We see as a legacy from the #JeffKennett era, privatization turns to crap ie our former State Electricy Commission and the forest industry! Can u believe that vital firefighting sprinkler piping was sold off when private owners bought Hazelwood mine! = catastrophic fire in 2014
Watching criminal actions here without consequences from @DanielAndrewsMP or @LilyDAmbrosioMP shatters any hope that there has been a change in mindset
I acknowledge there are legitimate concerns around the draft reforms to the code of practice for timber production and how they fit together.
Listening to the community is important and that’s why I’ve decided to withdraw the current consultation.
FAKE NEWS ALERT 😳
Yesterday a @sunriseon7 producer was chasing photos of rubbish left after #ClimateStrike.
Last night a propaganda FB page posted this fake photo if you have 5 minutes go to the page & report the post.
We need to fight Climate Change denial EVERY day

@DELWP_Vic @CitSciOZ DELWP you are logging and burning our native fauna to extinction, and then you take these tiny band aid measures and hope for good publicity. Shameful and sickening.
Here in Vic Greater Glider habitat is being logged primarily for paper by VicForests. GG’s listed as vulnerable 2 years ago still no action statement. VF refused last month to spare feed trees in Kinglake for 10 GG’s now logging in Toolangi where there are 5 GG’s #extinction
“The researchers said logging in the catchment made little economic sense given the water lost was worth far more than the timber, most of which is used to make paper.” https://t.co/JpTG7UnkmU

Logging 'Shazam' coupe cottonwood range #EastGippsland has started. Old growth trees that should be protected & buffered were not identified. We reported them to @DELWP_Vic just in time. They'll now be spared. @DELWP_Vic continue to fail as a regulator & community has to step in.
