In this episode I am talking with Jess Beckerling the Convenor and Campaign Director of the Western Australian Forest Alliance short WAFA.

In my conversation with her, we speak about:

• History and current situation of the logging industry in Western Australia
• the effects of forest logging
• why we need healthy forests
• job security for employees in the industry
• background of WAFA
• the public opinion survey on forest logging released by the State Government
• the importance to take that survery
• how you can best get involved in nature conservation even with little time
• and many other things.
