• The Size Our Native Forests Were Allowed To Grow Before
AFCA will soon add another dimension to our campaign and will contact all signatories to the National Position Statement against Forest Energy so they choose, if they wish, to also support the End to Native Forest Logging. In that campaign we will call, along with scientists and academics for:
• an end to industrial native forest logging
• prohibition of the export of native forest biomass, and removal of incentives for its use for electricity and biofuels
• reinstatement of the former ban on energy credits and subsidies for burning forests
• assistance for native forest protection and ecological restoration.
