#EndNativeForestLogging / #SaveTuckersNob

Fossil fuel machinery has started 'treading lightly' in Tuckers Nob public forest today in Bellingen.

Logging trucks were speeding along Roses community road today at 8.30, delivering giant fossil fuel machinery to start the industrial destruction of Tuckers Nob (compartments 26 and 27) public forest.

A vigil is being held by Friends of Tucker Nob on Gleniffer Rd.

Tim Cadman showing "the incredible beauty and diversity of Tuckers Nob rainforests and remnant forest. #NSWForestry is trying really hard to hide the wonders of this special Koala habitat."

'The Koala lives here'
Stop logging native forests
Stop forest destruction in a climate and biodiversity crisis

Tuckers Nob Forest future still uncertain

"Two months after the Minister for Agriculture, Tara Moriarty, ordered Forestry Corporation of NSW (FCNSW) to temporarily suspend logging in Tuckers Nob, there is still no clear indication of what the future holds for the ecologically sensitive area."
"The Department of Primary Industry is presently undertaking a further assessment of the proposed logging of Tuckers Nob compartments 26 and 27 in respect of how the Unique and Special Wildlife Values within the forest may be impacted."

Dr. Tim Cadman about clear felling Tuckers Nob forest, compartments 26/27, also know as the proposed Great Koala National Park.
on Coffs Coast Breakfast (start 38 min - 49 min)

Some points mentioned:

The impacts of clear felling on koalas and wildlife.
Koalas and other wildlife are 'blind' to so called 'plantation' labels or old growth forests.
The proposed logging period also overlaps with the 'vulnerable to extinction' marsupials' breeding season. ( September and February)
The noise, trucks, dust, fires, smoke and pesticides of industrial logging operations making the area unlivable for all living beings.
Possibly an uninhabitable scenic Gleniffer for approx. 2 - 5 years due to being tuned into an industrial site.
The short notice to (some) residents.
The undemocratic nature of non-consultation.
The fobbing off to a (FCNSW) website.

At approx. 47 min FCNSW had their statement read out.
