The Australian National University’s Green Carbon science reveals the critical role Australia’s south-eastern forests play in safely storing carbon out of our atmosphere.

We’d like to share this science with you, and talk about how you can help ensure Victoria’s forests are protected form logging, so they can be the carbon banks we desperately need them to be.

In December 2009 the fate of the Earth’s forests will be decided in Copenhagen when a new climate change treaty is negotiated. We must ensure that the Earth’s forests are protected as part of global action on climate change.

We hope you can join us at one of these forums for World Environment Day.
