The Nippon Paper owned South East Fibre Exports chipmill at
Eden, NSW has exported a million tonnes of woodchips a year in
recent years, but Australia already has enough plantation
hardwood to replace this devastation of natural forest. It does not use "waste wood," only whole logs. Forests are clear felled for the sole purpose of chipping and exported, mostly to Japan, to become paper. Every tree was once home to hundreds of forest dwelling creatures, some facing regional extinction due to woodchipping. Worse still, taxpayers subsidise this unnecessary industry. |
