Dear XXXXXX,
Logging continues in ancient takayna / Tarkine rainforests.
The Rapid River rainforests are a very remote region of takayna / Tarkine. Our Foundation discovered logging here in January and now we have found more logging destruction in another coupe. Tasmania and the world are losing fragile rainforests to logging every day in the Tarkine.
Logging of these forest for woodchips, and the controversial Sarawak timber company Ta Ann, is as bad as it gets for Tasmania. Government sanctioned destruction of remote, intact rainforests is a global shame.
Our Foundation has been working hard to bring attention to this logging and seek protection of these ancient rainforests. And now we need the support of Tasmanians who want to take action with us.
Next Tuesday in Deloraine there will be a peaceful demonstration in front of the office of Guy Barnett, Minister for logging.
Carol Beaumont invites you to join her for 30 minutes to protest against the logging of these ancient rainforests in Rapid River, takayna / Tarkine.
Tarkine campaigner Scott Jordan will be there to protest with you.
Protest for takayna / Tarkine
Tuesday 17 April
11am – 11:30am
Guy Barnett’s office
Main St, Deloraine
