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?

    Yeah, i’m a little further on the fringes, so its more common, and way less obtrusive around here. But having lived in several different areas, my current bungalow surrounded by other bungalows has been the most noticeable for the smoke impacts. I can only imagine how bad it would get if wood fires were common in say a mount lawley or an ellenrook type area.
