The aim of this site is to provide images of native forest locations in Victoria, Australia, which are under threat from logging/woodchipping and associated operations.

It is hoped that increased awareness of the issue will lead to public pressure on both government and logging/woodchipping interests, so that our fragile, unique and important native forests will be protected.

In the year 1869
20.0 million hectares, or
88% of the State was forest.

In the year 1989
5.4 million hectares,
...that's less than 24% of the state
was forest.

I wonder how little is left
in the year 2000?
