WE ALL NEED TREES
Our wildlife, climate and communities – we all need trees. Add your voice and join us in calling for an end to native forest logging, for good.
URGENT: Great Koala National Park at risk!
The Great Koala National Park is a nation-defining opportunity for Australia. It would protect critical habitat, boost tourism, and support koala recovery.
Right now, there’s a real danger the promised park could be downsized. We want the full protection of the park and the many endangered and threatened species that call it home, including an estimated 12,000+ koalas.
Call on our leaders to end native forest logging within the proposed Great Koala National Park and across Australia. Sign the petition today!
We all need trees – to breathe, to belong, to survive.
Yet in Australia forests are being cleared and logged at a staggering rate - an area of forest the size of a football field is cut down every two minutes in Australia.
We need to save our trees and keep our forests standing. Our mature trees are irreplaceable, they store more carbon, support cooler climates, and provide irreplaceable habitat for endangered wildlife, like koalas and greater gliders.
Some forests took millions of years to grow – if we lose them, they’re gone for generations.
Together we can put an end to native forest logging in Australia, and protect our forests for generations to come.
Your voice matters
In 2023, your support helped suspend logging in Tallaganda State Forest. We need your help again. Together, we can shift Australia from a deforestation to a reforestation nation. Help us end native forest logging.

Key Stats
Native forest logging is pushing species towards extinction, releasing emissions, and costing tax-payers millions of dollars a year.A football field logged every two minutes
Every two minutes, an area of forest the size of a football field is logged in Australia, releasing carbon and destroying vital habitat for Australian species.
50% of logs end up as woodchips

Native forest logging in NSW is costing taxpayers

69% of Australians support an end to native forest loging

Impact Spotlight: Tallaganda State Forest
After the 2019-20 bushfires decimated their habitat, we helped design and install specialised nest boxes to help greater gliders find shelter in their changed forests.
But, in 2023, we discovered NSW Forestry Corporation were logging in Tallaganda State Forest, dangerously close to the nest box sites. Soon after, the body of a dead greater glider was found.
Thanks to your support and with help from our partners on the ground, we were able to secure a Stop Work Order and halt the destruction – for now.
Why is Australia cutting down trees?
Australia is a world-leader when it comes to deforestation – something we’re not proud of.
But why is this happening? And what is the wood being used for?
Hint: it’s not used to build houses, or even furniture. The answer will shock you.
Our Mission Towards Two Billion Trees
By stopping excessive tree-clearing, protecting our existing trees and forests, and restoring native habitat that’s been lost, we’re working to save and plant two billion trees by 2030. Two billion!
We know... it’s a lot. And it’s only possible with your support.
