Permanently remove Cement and Starvation Creeks from Vic Forest timber release plans Petition: Signature List Feed http://www.gopetition.com/signatures/permanently-remove-cement-and-starvation-creeks-from-vic-forest-timber-release-plans.html Online petition signatures en-us Sun, 5 Apr 2026 05:21 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition darren Karanikich [Signature #220] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/18532425?utm_medium=rss It has to stop, it has gone to far already, to plant a few trees and think that this will do the same as these beautiful big tall forests says it all. Utter stupidity.
Australia should be showing other countries how to take the lead and do away with this industry and start planning an alternative one. Harness these beautiful areas and all their worth instead of driving a bulldozer thru them. Surely as human beings we can grasp the fact of what is right and wrong for the sake of all who live on this beautiful planet.

Across the Central Highlands such examples of forest are gold! Professor David Lindenmayer a world renowned forest ecologist has found our mountain ash forest are in a crisis, with their ecological collapse a real threat.

Let's be good stewards of our forest - this landscape is the one thing between our rivers and the clouds! Home therefore of our water - 90% of Melbourne's water, the carbon sequestration potential of these forest is immense.

Cement creek's headwater forest unlike much of the Yarra's headwater forest could be made available for walking in - as opposed to the closed catchment forest upstream of the dams and weirs.

Please remove this forest from clearfell logging!

So many coupes cut, so many more declared. Seems like everything except catchment is on the table for destruction.

This greater Ash forest is facing collapse. Then where will we find water? Then how will we prevent extinction? Then where will we hike and camp? Then where will we find replacements for the jobs that will be lost to tourism and in the towns that the hikers and campers frequent.

Logging hurts us all, to sustain very few jobs and for businesses that require taxpayer subsidies to remain solvent.

The Victorian State Auditor has stated, publicly, that VicForests is costing thye Victorian taxpayer 20 million dollars every year. So, why do you want to log any forest. let alone the beautiful an majestic forest of Cement Creek. I believe that VicForests their position is to destroy all of Victoria's forests only to justify their positions. Every action you do in the forest is destruction and unwarranted. Please, heed our call to leave our magnificent old growth forests to live.

I appreciate that our society needs paper but to destroy these precious areas of mountain ash for the purpose is horrendous and unneccesary. To say that this forest will regenerate is just for your publicity - the climate is changing rapidly and with increased risk of serious bushfires these areas may never have the chance to regenerate to mature forest that we see today. Think of our children - what right do we have to destroy their heritage? WE HAVE NO RIGHT.

Future generations need to be proud of our environment not ashamed of it. We humans are not the only living thing on this planet.
