The state government has banned native logging. Here's what that means if you're building a home, stoking your home fire, or doing up your garden.

I remember filling out a government survey that fed into this policy change.

At the time i thought we could attempt to replace more than we plan to keep, for future generations to maintain a managed and steady supply of beautiful Jarrah and Karri wood without decimating the forests like has happened.

Was this just impossibly wishful thinking on my behalf?

    I don’t really disagree, although I hesitate at “shouldn’t be allowed”.

    Firewood should be expensive enough that it’s not a viable way to heat your home day to day.

      I like this. I think theres something nice about having a fire… bushfires excepted… but its ridiculous as the primary method of heating your home with our access to all sorts of other methods in this country.
