It doesn't have to be this way. Other companies already use perfectly suitable alternatives, such as recycled paper, bamboo or even wheat straw.

Costco is just as capable of making this change and protecting the boreal forest in the process. But the company needs to hear from you.

End native forest logging if Australia

Labor fails on the environment at national conference

"The Australia Institute’s poll on banning native forest logging was ignored in spite of the fact that key findings demonstrated seven in 10 Australians (69 per cent) support extending native forest logging bans to NSW and Tasmania.Three in four Labor voters and three in five Coalition voters support an end to logging".

"According to the letter, land clearing data released for Queensland and NSW confirmed more than 15 million hectares of forest and woodland (an area larger than greater Sydney) has been bulldozed in three years across the two states alone".

"Professor Hugh Possingham estimates for every 100 hectares bulldozed, as many as 500 native mammals,
2000 birds, and
15,000 reptiles die."

"In a 2022 ...forest ecologist, Professor David Lindenmayer from the ANU wrote that ending forest logging is the only way to meet Australia’s net zero target."

Clearcut logging is associated with more frequent extreme flooding, as well as more frequent floods of any size, according to new UBC research.

#Australia 's native forests can be most beneficial to us by being protected and being allowed to continue to grow, to store #carbon and to provide healthy #ecosystems for people and animals alike.

We call on the Treasurer to stop prolonging the inevitable. We want to see a rapid and ambitious end to native forest logging outlined in the next Statement of Corporate Intent.

My article in this week's Glen Innes Examiner, published today, was inspired by the efforts to #SaveBulgaForest as part of a larger campaign to #EndNativeForestLogging..

BREAKING: A Knitting Nanna has locked herself to the main gates of the Heron’s Creek sawmill, the biggest native forest mill in NSW.

She shares, "there’s generations of our family standing here today to save generations of the forest."

The #SaveBulgaForest campaign kicked off in the week before Christmas, as FCNSW moved into the Bulga State Forest to start logging native forests recovering from the 2019-20 bushfires.
The Bulga Plateau is west of Port Macquarie on the NSW Mid North Coast and the local community in early January 2023 set up camp at the Ellenborough Falls campground.
Margo Kingston has been live tweeting on the ground with a thread of 68 tweets covering all the action.
Check out the story as it unfolds and give these forest legends some love and retweets.

Save Bulga Forest is inviting supportive folk to join them at camp to help stop the logging of Bulga Forest and put #NativeForest protection in the spotlight as we head into a #NSWElection.

Breaking: Locals have blockaded and stopped the logging and carnage of our precious Bulga Forest part of the Great Dividing Range. The NSW Government is trashing this forest. This forest and the forest animals have not yet recovered from fires.#nswpol #endnativeforestlogging
