Recent Karl Just Webinar – Challenging the Myth of Fuel Load Reduction. We were thrilled to have over 220 people attend, making it our most popular webinar yet.

A couple of links that Karl refers to during his webinar:

VFA are raising funds on Chuffed to power our Stop Planned Burns campaign – and we’d love your support!
If you’re fired up after the webinar, now’s the time to chip in and help the VFA turn momentum into action.

Upcoming Webinar – 1st May at 6:30pm
Join us for a special session with Prof. David Lindenmayer on: “Disturbance-Stimulated Flammability – Links Between Logging, Previous Fire, and Wildfire”
A must-see for anyone interested in fire, forests, and the future. This is a free event, but registration is essential.
Sign the petition to “Stop broadscale burning of native forest in Victoria”
We call on the Minister for the Environment, Steve Dimopoulos, to stop broadscale burning of forests.
Instead, we need the government to:
- Manage forest for maturity, allowing ecological controls to reduce forest flammability.
- Redeploy funds from broadscale burning to rapid detection and suppression of fires using drone technology, infra-red mapping, satellite imagery, and water bombing capacity.
- Boost remote area firefighting capacity.
We hope you’ve been inspired to dive deeper, stay curious, and stay connected as we continue this vital conversation.
More webinars are on the way, and we’re expanding our website to keep the knowledge flowing and the momentum growing.
Let’s keep learning, questioning, and creating change – together.
