Ending Native Forest Logging with Bob Brown | Summer Series

Our summer podcast series brings you some of the best conversations from our webinars and live events in 2023.

Australia’s native forests are not only home to some of our most vulnerable and threatened species, they hold critical cultural and ecological value. While native forest logging is being phased out in Western Australia and Victoria, other states are failing to take action to protect these iconic and precious ecosystems from logging.

This was recorded on Wednesday 4th October 2023 and things may have changed since recording.
