Can you believe this? Labor is handing over tens of millions of dollars from an emissions reduction fund to help a Tasmanian cement plant burn native forests.
This will lock in ongoing destruction of nature and massive greenhouse gas emissions from industrial logging.
It’s yet another lifeline for the native forest logging industry, which cannot survive without massive taxpayer subsidies.
Governments should be working together to protect native forests, not conspiring to destroy them.
Native forest logging needs to end, and it needs to end now.
