Eco 'worriers' continue dangerous protests

Posted on 20 February 2012 by Content Manager

Anti-logging protesters continue to endanger themselves and forestry workers as they try to stop a legal, sustainable and important industry in NSW.

Often repeat offenders, these dangerous and abusive self-styled ‘protectors’ of the environment ignore the fact that logging is carried on under strict regulations aimed at ensuring habit is maintained and future resources are guaranteed.

They harass the men and women working in our forests and rarely, if ever, are called to account for their actions.

This videos show what is happening in our forests every day (viewer discretion advised): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kz5zCS29_Zk.

Some lessons appear to be lost on some people today, as this video demonstrates: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h-oGzpUr7CY.

Other 'Pedrocam100' clips on YouTube give a broader view of the problems our forestry workers face.

This has to stop before more people and jobs are threatened for no good reason at all.
