FORUM: Let's talk about Takayna/Tarkine

Saturday 6th August 2022 2-3pm Free event but donations can be made to the Bob Brown Foundation to save Takayna/Tarkine.

Bronwyn, Rose and Michael attended the Art for Takayna event organised by the Bob Brown Foundation in April 2022.

‘takayna / Tarkine remains today a rare gem of natural intactness in a world where the destruction of wild nature is rampant and accelerating. It should also be one of the easiest in the world to protect. Comprising just seven percent of Tasmania, the Tarkine contains the nation’s largest temperate rainforest, a galaxy of its rare and endangered wildlife and some of the richest Aboriginal heritage in the hemisphere. The latter has been inscribed on the list of National Heritage. The cleanest air in the world, as measured by the nearby UN monitoring station, blows across the Tarkine’s shores.’- Bob Brown.

The Tarkine is under threat from mining, logging and off road vehicles.
