In the wake of Western Australia and Victoria banning native logging, we speak to Paddy Cullen, from the Bob Brown Foundation, regarding Labor's opportunity to bring Australia in line with the rest of the developed world in its fight for climate; by ending native logging across the country. WA’s leading Conservation Groups will be gathering at Parliament House on Saturday 12 August at 11.00 am to ‘Rally for the Forests’ https://www.facebook.com/events/820114869468990?ref=newsfeed Overall, 10 rallies are planned around the country as the culmination of three days of forest actions by the Bob Brown Foundation as part of a nationwide protest to end logging and native forest destruction. In WA Actions taking place include making a giant Black Cockatoo out of people holding umbrellas in Bunbury organised by Nannas for Native Forests.
