Australia's native forests are home to incredible wildlife, store vast amounts of carbon, and provide clean water for communities. Yet many of these forests continue to face ongoing threats from logging and clearing. While legislation and our Governments have a role to play in protecting these special places, some of Australia's largest and most trusted retailers also have a responsibility to get timber from native forests off their shelves and out of their supply chains.

Over recent months, thousands of people have spoken up and called on Coles, Woolworths, and Bunnings to do better when it comes to sourcing products linked to the destruction of native forests.

We are being heard, but we need to step our efforts if we are going to get these corporate giants to make the changes our forests need. We have a plan for how together we can drive this change, and we are excited to share it with you.

Join Wilderness Society staff and supporters from across the continent for an online briefing on the next steps in this work.

During the session we will:

• Learn more about the threats facing Australia's native forests and the opportunities to protect them from corporate greed and greenwashing.
• Take action together to help protect forests and wildlife.
• Explore how we can build a strong and growing network of people who cannot be ignored.

RSVP today.

At the Wilderness Society, we have a simple mission: To support the life that supports all of us.

The Westside group are local community members who love where we live and want to take positive action for nature. We are working to achieve better community rights in environmental decision-making, protection of Victoria’s Tall Forests, and stronger nature laws. There is no better time than right now to come together and demand more for nature.

If you're a resident in Melbourne's West who wants to take community action for nature but is unsure how, this is the event for you!

We appreciate and value our natural environment, including our parks and rivers and unique Australian flora and fauna.

From the Cooks River to the waters of the City of Canada Bay, we meet on the lands of the Wangal people of the Eora Nation, to talk about what matters to us and organise activities that promote the conservation of nature and contribute to the Wilderness Society’s campaigns. 

Our activities involve picnics, educational walks, stalls, film screenings, and meetings with our elected representatives.

One step at a time we take action to prevent environmental threats - doing what we can to give nature a voice.

New South Wales' native forests are on the line, and with the state election fast approaching, now is your chance to help tip the balance in their favour.

Across NSW communities have watched destructive forestry continue to operate despite growing, overwhelming community opposition.

This is the moment, to build the movement and coordinated power to push back on the corporate and political forces driving forest destruction. 

At our Forest Hour of Power, we'll unpack the threat, share our strategy and vision for the future, and bring people together across the state and local to you. We'll build the connections needed to keep the momentum going and map out where we're going next.

Join us on July 8 at 6:30 pm as we continue to build the statewide movement NSW's native forests need, and deserve.

Zoom link will be shared one day before the event
