Whatever Gunns does with the permits, this environmentally evil company will continue to log 200,000 hectares of Tasmania’s wild forest and wildlife habitats. That’s third world practice, not world’s best. And the mill will inject over 100 million tonnes of greenhouse gases into the global atmosphere accelerating climate change.
Gunns' failure to announce a pulpmill partner by the end of the financial year, as promised, shows yet again that no one is willing to sign an agreement.

Huge public response - over $240,000 raised
Donations from more than 1000 members of the public have poured in to help pay the $240,000 legal costs bill for Forestry Tasmania.
Most of the donations are modest but they range from $7.20 to $20,000 (for the purchase of a Wedge-tail eagle painting). Bob would like to pass on that he is extremely grateful and sends his heartfelt thanks to everyone who offered support.
It shows how strongly people feel about the fate of Tasmania's wild forests and their wildlife. There were many more offers to raise money.
