Environment: Gondwana Forest Sanctuary

"To protect, reconnect and restore the life of Gondwana by creating an international sanctuary of Earth's southernmost forests....No major civilization has flourished following the destruction of its primary forests. The forests that originated on Gondwana constitute the oldest and most unique temperate ecosystems in the Southern Hemisphere. In this era of economic globalization, the concept of a global commons as reflected in the Antarctica World Park needs to be expanded to protect Gondwana's far-flung surviving forests. With the millennium upon us, now is the time for a new era in international forest protection. The Gondwana Forest Sanctuary provides local, national and international communities with a new model for the way humans relate to the land." -- from the website. <http://nativeforest.org/campaigns/gondwana>
