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.”

After the closure of VicForests, The Healthy Forests Foundation is reborn - the new face of logging in Victoria
"VicForests' June 30 closure followed allegations of widespread and illegal logging, referrals to corruption watchdogs and revelations the organisation had spied on conservationists."
The Healthy Forests Foundation
""The aim is just to work out ways to keep cutting the forest. It's a front — it's just a way of keeping the [logging] industry going. It's kind of like the 'healthy smoking foundation'..Professor Lindenmayer, who spent decades studying the impacts of logging on forests, described the Healthy Forests Foundation as "greenwashing on steroids"."The Healthy Forests Foundation says its purpose is to promote First Nations forest management, which proponents admit will also supply timber. One Indigenous leader said the Healthy Forests Foundation looked like "black cladding" — a way for largely non-Indigenous industries to gain access to resources by taking advantage of Indigenous peoples' access...It is not self-determination. It is tokenism."
