‘Twist and Shout’ Forest Under Threat
/in AnnouncementsCheck out the website of the Sunshine Coast (Roberts Creek area) based conservation group the Elphinstone Logging Focus who are working to achieve a 2000 hectare expansion to the protected area on Mount Elphinstone. BC Timber Sales has given the go ahead to log the ‘Twist and Shout’ forest within the proposal, which includes numerous veteran old-growth Douglas-firs and redcedars, and local activists have been non-violently protesting there for weeks. See a comprehensive list of updates and coverage and events and how to take action on the “Twist and Shout” section of their website at: https://www.loggingfocus.org/campaigns/protect-the-twist-and-shout-forest/
