BZE tours the Great Forest National Park with the people who are working to preserve it. We speak to Senator Janet Rice about why so called" forest waste " must not be included in any renewable energy target and WHY preserving trees is a brilliant tactic to slow down climate disruption.
When the state forests become National Park, a Carbon Sink worth $40 million each year will be created. The effect of letting this moist forest age gracefully will be to slow down the impacts of climate change.
Vivien also chats with Artist Karena Goldfinch, Forest campaigner Steve Meacher and the Knitting Nanas
