Photoshoot with environmental activist, Violet Coco, at Doubleduke State Forest in far north NSW, which is currently being logged by Forestry Corporation NSW.
Several attempts to block the logging by protesters have so far failed. Forestry Corporation NSW have been quoted as saying, "timber harvesting in native regrowth forests takes place in around 1 per cent of state forests each year and each area is completely regrown".
Charges against Violet Coco for protesting on the Sydney Harbour Bridge in April 2022 were last week quashed after the judge found inconsistencies in police reports that her actions blocked an ambulance on emergency call.
Repressive anti-laws introduced last year are said to be targeting environmentalists and human rights activists.
Neither the NSW state Coalition, nor the state Labor Party have committed to repealing these laws on the eve of next week’s state election.
