“Runaway” land-clearing in NSW
"Almost 90 football fields of woody habitat were bulldozed e v e r y d a y in NSW – despite pledges to rein it in."
“Given there’s been no policy change since the government were elected in 2023 it’s no surprise to see that land clearing hasn’t been fixed."
“Every hectare of trees bulldozed means fewer homes for wildlife and more carbon pollution in the atmosphere." >>

A yearning for the idyllic forest scene and cellulose factories
When they want to ‘get away from it all’ and ‘go for a drive’ through nature, the idyllic forest scene, they are in denial that the romantic craving for the bush turns out to be industrial plantations.
“Nature ... is a planned product of the forestry industry, a purely wisely placed storehouse for cellulose production, which is readily apparent.”
- The Man Without Qualities, Robert Musil, 1930https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Man_Without_Qualities
