Best day of my life fr

He joined the Tingle Action Group and WA Forest Alliance to see both the beauty of long-unburnt tingle forest, thriving as it has for centuries, and the impact of prescribed burning, which has felled hundreds of ancient tingle trees.

14 activists have been hit with a $500 fine each after stopping work at Alcoa's Huntly mine last month.

Join us to see the beauty of the Northern Jarrah Forest and the horror of Alcoa's destruction up close.

It’s not in the national interest to keep clearing precious forests, push species to extinction and risk Perth’s drinking water. Enough is enough, no more exemptions.

Alcoa will pay an unprecedented $55 million through enforceable undertakings to remediate historical land clearing, the largest conservation‑focused commitment of its kind. More information to come.

Today is Invasion Day. 200 years ago, the first British colony was established on Noongar boodja, land that always was and always will be Noongar land.

Join us for an evening of powerful local music and community action. Tunes for the Tingles brings together some of Denmark’s finest acts for a fundraiser supporting the Tingle Action Group.

🚨 #BREAKING: Shocking new revelations suggest mining giant Alcoa could be in breach of its mining exemption conditions in WA’s Northern Jarrah Forest, after a significant endangered black cockatoo nesting tree was found to have been impacted by mining activity. #westernaustralia #wildoz

Over the past 6 years, the land around this significant jarrah tree was cleared and mined or turned into road. Now, it has died, likely as a result of the disturbance.

Whilst three Tingle blocks were removed from the prescribed burn plan just before Christmas, some Tingles remain in the firing line.

Don’t miss your chance to have a say.

It’s time to draw a line in the sand, and end forest mining in the Northern Jarrah forest.

Our friends at @ausconservation.bsky.social & Conservation Council of WA have put together this scorecard to help you decide how to use your vote best to protect the environment 💪🌳

❗🌳 Mining company Telupac has applied for seven exploration licences putting WA’s unique Jarrah forests at risk. WA Mines Minister, David Michael, has the power to refuse Telupac's application - but he needs to act now. ✍️ Sign the petition>>https://wafa.org.au/telupac/

Now that #WAVotes2025 is done and dusted, what's next for WA's forests?

So far 180 collapsed giant Tingle and Karri trees have been counted from the December 2024 prescribed burn near Nornalup, and that number is rising. 🌳Take action: wafa.org.au/tingles

🚨Despite advice from the Water Corporation that strip mining close to Perth & the Southwest's drinking water supply was too great a risk, the Cook Government continue to allow Alcoa to put your health and safety at risk. Take action: wafa.org.au/efm-water

In a headline grabbing social media post to his millions of followers, DiCaprio criticised the approval of South32’s plan to expand mining in Northern Jarrah Forests. Join the struggle to stop South32's dirty plans>> wafa.org.au/volunteer

With the Nornalup Block still under threat from an inappropriate prescribed burn this autumn, showing how loved the Tingle Giants are in the area would send a powerful message to the DBCA. Vote: 'Wondrous Forests of the Walpole Wilderness - WA' eucalyptaustralia.org.au/eucalypt-of-...

Together with the Conservation Council of WA, we have created an election scorecard to help you vote for the future of WA's forests this Saturday 8 March. More details>>https://wafa.org.au/wa-election2025 #WAVotes2025

One of the south west WA region’s longest-serving volunteer firefighters with over 40 years experience, Ken Collins, says it was time to abandon prescribed burning quotas and focus on protecting townsites instead. www.amrtimes.com.au/news/augusta...

Yesterday, community members gathered today outside South32's HQ in the heart of Boorloo/Perth. The snap action was in response response to the recent government approval of the Worsley Aluminium mine expansion near Boddington. wafa.org.au/south32-snap...

WA has a prescribed burning program that hasn’t changed since 1994, and in the meantime, the climate has changed enormously. DBCA are doing the same old thing, burning far too hot, not changing anything, and this is putting WA's tourism industry at risk.

Over 150 giant Tingle and Karri trees have collapsed after a prescribed burn next door to WA's famed Valley of the Giants Treetop Walk. The ‘Giants East’ forest block was ignited in late December by the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA). wafa.org.au/ancient-ting...

Collectively the #EndForestMining alliance sent over 18,000 letters to @tanyaplibersekmp.bsky.social, calling on her to do her job, & reject clearing irreplaceable Jarrah forests. While disappointed, we are determined to limit bauxite-mining deforestation across the Northern Jarrah Forest.

Rehabilitation does not and cannot restore the Jarrah forest after bauxite mining. We need to mitigate all threats to these forests and threatened species and stop relying on false solutions that just don’t work.

The South32 approval means a further 4500ha of critical habitat in the Northern Jarrah Forests will be bulldozed and burnt. Threatened species will take a triple hit - from climate impacts, from clearing, and a failed rehabilitation program.

BREAKING: Federal Environment Minister, Tanya Plibersek has approved a proposal by South32 that would see thousands of hectares of WA’s Jarrah forest, found nowhere else on Earth, destroyed for bauxite mining.

As climate change continues to make it more difficult to manage fire, we must develop a more sophisticated, up-to-date, and best-practice prescribed burning management plan that embraces the latest scientific and First Nations wisdom.

Will a $5.7 million upgrade to the Valley of the Giants Ancient Empire trail be put at risk by the outdated prescribed burning program that has already severely damaged the surrounding Tingle forest? With more burns set to happen this autumn, the tourism experience will be badly undermined.

Federal Environment Minister @tanyaplibersekmp.bsky.social has a choice to make about South32's plan to clear 4,533ha of forest and habitat in WA's Northern Jarrah forests - the same size as her electorate! Tell her to Reject South32>>https://wafa.org.au/reject-south32/

Jarrah forest is irreplaceable - mining removes the very bauxitic substrate on which the Jarrah forest ecosystem has evolved. Take this away and a Jarrah forest cannot be returned.

Western Australians have been sold a lie that rehabilitation after bauxite mining in Jarrah forests is working. To date none of Alcoa’s rehabilitation has been signed off by the WA Government as successfully completed in 60 years of mining.

Every year around 200,000 ha of forests & other ecosystems are burned in South West WA. Whilst the program is intended to reduce the risk of wildfire - it is increasing flammability in some ecosystems. We need an overhaul of the DBCA prescribed burns management plans.

Hello Bluesky! Native forest logging in WA has ended! But the struggle to protect Southwest Forests continues!
