Forestry Tasmania defends logging
Posted: Thu, 5 Jun 2003 1:52 AEST
Forestry Tasmania defends logging decision Forestry Tasmania is defending its controversial decision to begin logging in the Tarkine rainforest. Tasmania's Greens leader, Peg Putt, says there is a lot of anger over the State Government's plan to harvest 2,000 tonnes a year of deep red myrtle in the Tarkine in Tasmania's north-west. "The rest of Australia has stopped logging rainforest, this is the largest intact tract of rainforest in Australia," she said. But Forestry Tasmania's Hans Drielsma says this area is approved for logging under the Regional Forests Agreement. "What we're talking about is relatively small areas that are going to be available on a selective basis for the supply of specialty timbers," he said. Greens leader Bob Brown weighed into the argument, accusing Federal Minister David Kemp of environmental vandalism on the eve of World Environment Day. !!!!!!!!!The clean green state that will look like a big golf-course any day soon!!!!!!!!!!!! -- Robert B* II |
