These shocking statistics are accompanied by stunning images of threatened forests, and alternatives offered by industry professionals. 

The Wilderness Societys 'The Last Wild River'

A documentary made by Paul Smith and Dr Bob Brown. The Last Wild River (1978) follows the adventuring party of 4 as they paddle down the wild Franklin River in rubber rafts.
