FOREST DEFENDER LOCKED ONTO ROAD GRADER IN THE UPPER FLORENTINE VALLEY

 

Early this morning, a female forest defender locked herself onto a road grading machine working on the proposed 4km road in the old growth forests of the Upper Florentine Valley.

 

"The community will continue to work towards the protection of the pristine old growth forests in the Upper Florentine Valley. Forest defenders will continue to highlight Forestry Tasmania's destructive and wasteful rampage in our World Heritage-valued forests" said Ali Alishah, Still Wild Still Threatened spokesperson. 


"Numbers at Camp Florentine are expected to swell, leading up to this weekend's 'Reclaim our forests' community camp-out" said Ali Alishah.
