A huge congratulations is in order for the crew at Save Perth Hills who have campaigned tirelessly since 1991 against Satterley's plan that would have seen 535 ha of land cleared. This decision means 60,000 trees, predominantly 100 to 200 year old jarrahs and marris will remain standing.

It's alarming that at least half of the thinned timber is being burnt straight away, releasing carbon into the atmosphere and contributing to climate change, increasing water and heat stress on the very forests thinning is supposed to protect.

All bauxite mining in the jarrah forest will now be owned by one US company that has a dismal record of compliance with Aus. laws. Alcoa’s expansion should be scrapped, because while it's under assessment, the impact is already clear: mining for bauxite destroys forests and endangers our water.

Burning extensive areas of coastal vegetation is simply incompatible with a region like Walpole, which relies heavily on nature-based tourism.

South32 has read the writing on the wall; mining in the NJF isn’t an option for the future, especially given the massive public backlash. We know Alcoa’s rehabilitation efforts are a farce, so why trust them to take over thousands of hectares of land yet to be rehabilitated by South32?

Over the past 6 years, the land around this significant jarrah tree was cleared and mined or turned into road. Now, it has died, likely as a result of the disturbance.

Whilst three Tingle blocks were removed from the prescribed burn plan just before Christmas, some Tingles remain in the firing line.

Prescribed burn in Walpole angers Tingle Action Group who say DBCA has backflipped on moratorium (A prescribed burn east of Walpole has alarmed the Tingle Action Group, who say the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions is going back on its pre-Christmas promise not to start new burns.) and 2.
