Documentation of the systematic destruction of Tuckers Nob forests

"Presentation for Friends of Tuckers Nob on the history and significance of Tuckers Nob State Forest and why it must be included in the NSW Government's proposed 'Great' Koala National Park. Based on a recent preliminary report submitted to government, showing the original forest and koala sightings, with a list of moratorium areas (including Tuckers). All the most recent developments, bringing the viewer up to date. This is why we need a #GreaterKoalaPark, with no logging."

The video has a link to the report containing the results (maps) of the investigations by Dr Tim Cadman and local community-based citizen scientists:

The government promised a koala national park. Then their loggers moved in

"Logging inside the Great Koala National Park assessment area is four times more intense when measured by area than in nearby state forests outside the park, and environmentalists say the targeted areas are wreaking maximal environmental damage...New analysis suggests the NSW government’s own logging arm is trashing the forest inside the proposed park." >>

Nature Positive
Australia's collapsing ecosystems declared a 'critical infrastructure'

Australia has destroyed and degraded nature. The remaining collapsing ecosystems are declared a 'critical infrastructure'. This new system of governance to organise life is framed as a 'Nature Positive' policy with the help of a large consulting business.

The remaining nature is now a market not a common good and has no rights (Rights of Nature laws). The ‘more-than-human-worlds’ becomes a market of 'ecosystem services' to serve a few of the human species. Nature is now a mere 'essential infrastructure' like roads, highway, sewers, sewage etc.

"At least 19 Australian ecosystems have been reported to show signs of collapse or near collapse."
