Many people over decades have been part of researching and refining the wording of the self-evident and achievable solutions offered in the VISION 2030 Earth Repair Charter Global Solution Strategy.

Acknowledgement with sincere gratitude is expressed by the Earth Repair Foundation (Team ERF) to all the contributors who have helped the growth of this earth repair initiative. To everyone who has participated so far during the last 35 years and more, directly or indirectly, and also to others yet to help, may abundant blessings always be with you all for your continuous enjoyment of optimistic nowist thinking, the latest time as your greatest best time, and knowing that even better is yet to come along with ever-increasing feelings of peace, love, freedom, and happiness.

Listed below in semi-alphabetical order are the names of some of the many participants and contributors.

Team ERF consists of young and old volunteers, communicating and cooperating to advance in every way possible the projects listed below. These projects are being managed by the following organisations:

Earth Repair Foundation (ERF)
McNaturals International Pty Ltd (McNs)
United Peoples Association of Australia (UPAA)
Peace Now Association Inc (PNAI), which can be re-incorporated to enable freelance fund-raising in public domains.

This proposal is for the First Nations Peoples of Australia that comprise more than 300 sovereign nations, and whose history dates back over 50,000 years. It is also for the attention of all who have migrated to Australia from every nation on Earth.

In the pursuit of peaceful coexistence and unity between all peoples in Australia and throughout the world, We the People sharing this state that:

The Earth Repair Foundation (ERF), an innovative environmental and community education organisation based in the Blue Mountains, is aiming to achieve Australia’s most signed petition. This petition calls for the permanent protection of all native forests and an ecologically sustainable future. The petition is already supported by more than 160 diverse community groups, union, business, environmental, indigenous, ethnic, religious and political organisations representing millions of Australians (see list of endorsees overleaf). The petition is seeking to collect over a million signatures.

The Forest Protection Petition outlines viable and achievable solutions aiming to protect in perpetuity, Australia’s irreplaceable high-conservation value native forests, including old-growth and rainforests. It also recommends practical plantation strategies which can sustain the important pulp, paper and timber industries in Australia. The petition began in the early 90s when a group of dedicated forest defenders began a Fast for the Forests on Macquarie Street, Sydney, in front of NSW Parliament House. Two individuals fasted for over 30 days as a personal protest and the action ran for 60 days. Since that time, the petition has gained unprecedented support and aims to be the most influential petition in Australia’s history. It advocates a long-term approach to ecologically-sustainable forestry practices by assisting rural communities with much-needed employment in developing plantation timbers and annual fibre crops and effectively ‘reaping only what we sow.’

It is a well-known fact that Australia’s native forests are being sacrificed to export woodchips to Japan and other countries, while those countries preserve their own native forests as national treasures. The petition requests that The Parliament legislates to progressively transfer expertise and resources from all military sectors to help implement tree planting and food growing solutions, and to motivate the international community to follow this example.

Australia, as a signatory to the United Nations Biodiversity Convention, is committed to protecting the fauna and flora unique to our native forests. Any government’s acceptance of the further destruction of our beautiful Australian native forests for short-term economic gain is ecologically and economically indefensible; it is stealing an ancient heritage from future generations. Australia’s forests and wilderness have always been an integral part of Aboriginal life and are still interrelated with the culture of Australia’s traditional owners. “It is not only an issue of ecology, but one of human rights and cultural survival.” (NSW Aboriginal Land Council).

You can help by signing and networking this petition and presenting it periodically to the Federal House of Representatives. It can be adapted and addressed to the Legislative Councils and Legislative Assemblies of New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, Tasmania, and Western Australian Parliaments. Make it known to the community via the media and share your campaign history, feats, and challenges associated with the protection of native forests.

The legendary Dr. Richard St Barbe Baker, Founder of Children of the Green Earth, quoted: “It is not only necessary to keep the forests we still have, but companion planting and helping grow increasing quantities of appropriate trees, is the scientific solution to Earth’s environment dilemma.”

This is an opportunity for Australian Governments to demonstrate responsible and exemplary environmental leadership by adopting the World’s Best Practices for Australia’s forests.

2021 ❦ A global pandemic became the catalyst that united the majority of Earth’s citizens to initiate a global system based on truth, unconditional love, virtue (help ever, hurt never), peace and non-violence for a perfectly balanced society. ❦ Motivating begins for every nation to progressively transform their military expertise and resources to help implement the objectives of the Global Earth Repair Charter as the highest priority in each country.
