The term ‘illegal logging’ keeps popping up in media coverage, especially at the ABC and The Conversation, despite a court having ruled there is no shred of substance to such criticism, as harvesting operations are approved by a government agency and subject to detailed pre-planning, in-field supervision and post-harvest regeneration. Yet the lies never stop

Green activism never rests. While the Wuhan flu has been hogging the headlines, academic ecologists have been beavering away in their quest to shut down what is left of Australia's timber industry. Their tools: absurd claims and spurious 'science' spoon fed to gullible reporters

Before the Wuhan virus swept it from the headlines, fire was crisis du jour.
