One Nation has just announced an election policy promising to re-open native forest logging.
The vast majority of Victorians are strongly opposed to native forest logging and value Victoria’s forests for camping, recreation, water security, and wildlife preservation. Re-starting logging is irreconcilable with the survival of Victoria’s unique flora and fauna and is also practically impossible without appropriate supply.
Victoria’s native forests have nothing left to give. Write to party leader Warren Pickering to emphasise why re-opening the logging industry is bad policy.
Claiming that a native logging industry is still viable in Victoria also doesn’t serve regional workers and communities. Even the suggestion that the industry could be revived distorts reality and fails to honour the magnitude of the change that directly affected communities have just navigated.
