Hi,

I've been forwarded two emails from ACF who have a petition going to try to 
influence the plan to have the World Heritage listing of part of Tasmania's 
forests delisted.

Forward the email and petition link www.action.org.au/heritage 

I'm adding it here in case anyone wants to sign and doesn't know about it.  

It's interesting that the pole is running in Queensland too.

Sonja
