Forest action outside Coffs Forestry Office this Tues 21 March at 10 am

The United Nations has declared Tues 21st of March as 'International Day Of Forests'.

This Tuesday 21 March we are asking Forest conservationists to rally outside Coffs Harbour Forestry Office with speakers
from the National Parks Association, Bellingen Environment Centre, The Greens, the Kalang River Forest Alliance, Coffs Harbour Climate Action and North East Forest Alliance.




Our forest here is in dire straits.

In Australia we have so little of our native forest and original native vegetation left, and we need to protect what we have, it is so important for healthy ecosystems on land and in water ways and to help mitigate climate change. 


Luke Wilton a well known passionate forest muso and supporter will be entertaining us with own songs. 


It is the International Day of Water the next day and we are therefore also highlighting the proposed logging into the Kalang River's Headwaters and the detrimental effect this will have on the Kalang River, all the way down the river system to the sea at Urunga.
