Hundreds of tallowwood trees are being grown and cared for by local school children.
But it seems to pale to insignificance when compared to the destruction brought to our local Crown lands by NSW Forest Corporation.
New harvest regimes allow for the intensive clearfell of local forests.
Thousands of hectares are being targeted with no concern for the animals that may live there. All bio-diversity is bulldozed and only a single species seed tree sparsely spaced are left, producing only a monoculture in the future.
