The NSW NPA proposes to add 175,000ha of public native forests (State Forests) to the existing reserve system to create a 315,000ha network of National Parks across our region.

🌳 THANK YOU, GREENS! 🌳

Today, the federal Greens announced they will support an improved INFM method, following negotiations with the federal government.

We know how much pressure the Greens have been under throughout this debate. We know there are deeply held concerns across the environment movement about carbon credits and offsets.

That’s why we want to acknowledge this decision, and the work that went into securing stronger protections for our forests.

The Greens have negotiated:

🌳 A permanent increase in the required reduction in logging, from 20% to 25% in 2028 and 30% for projects registered after 2030.

🌳 Protections to prevent native forests being reclassified as plantations to avoid the scheme’s safeguards.

🌳 A legal precedent to prevent coal and gas from accessing credits created under the scheme where state governments have committed to exclude them.

The Greens say these changes will “protect more forest, likely bring forward new national parks, and expedite the end of native forest logging." and that's worth celebrating!

As Greens Leader Larissa Waters said today, the party room has resolved to support the improved INFM because “forest and habitat is critical to prevent endangered species from extinction as well as the climate.”

For those of us who have spent years fighting to protect Australia’s native forests, this matters.

These forests are not a hypothetical policy exercise. They are living ecosystems, habitat for threatened species, carbon stores and places that communities have fought for decades to protect.

We cannot thank the Greens enough for taking the time to negotiate stronger protections and ultimately choosing to support a pathway that could help bring native forest logging to an end.

And to the Greens, we want you to know this: You have our support. This is a huge step, but the fight isn’t over.

Now we need to make sure these commitments deliver what they promise: more protected forests, less logging, and an accelerated transition away from native forest logging. 🌳💚

Thankyou Sue Higginson for all your hard work and tireless advocacy for our native forests and the GKNP. We look forward...

Thankyou Sue Higginson for all your hard work and tireless advocacy for our native forests and the GKNP. We look forward to seeing the despicable National Party disallowance motion crash and burn on the 15th and the improved INFM enabling true forest protection. 🙏🌈🐨🕺🏼

Today, a delegation of forest campaigners is in Canberra to deliver an open letter signed by more than 100 of the people and organisations at the heart of NSW’s forest, climate and conservation movements.

Signatories include leading ecologists and citizen scientists, lifelong forest campaigners, organisers of major forest and fossil fuel blockades, elected Greens representatives and environmental organisations that have spent decades campaigning to protect native forests.

They are calling on the Senate not to support the Nationals disallowance motion on the INFM method.

The method gives state governments a pathway to end native forest logging, protect those forests for 100 years, and invest in their long-term management and restoration.

The people who have tirelessly defended our forests are asking Senators to keep that pathway open.
