  • Summary

  • Terania Creek - Australia’s first successful environmental protest.

    “The Story Of Terania Creek is essentially the story of rainforests everywhere. Rainforest, that cradle of evolution has been hacked, cleared, felled, milled and burned” (Jack Thompson, Give Trees A Chance: the story of Terania Creek, 1980).

    An army of 200 protesters takes on 100s of police at Terania Creek to save ancient World Heritage-listed rainforest....and they win.

    Join us for this inspiring interview with Nan and Hugh Nicholson on their property at The Channon in northern NSW.

    Learn about their incredible plight to save the ancient rainforest at Terania Creek and how the protests changed Australia’s approach to protecting the environment forever.

    Nan and Hugh also discuss the recent fires which burned ancient rainforests for the first time in millennia and the proposed Dunoon Dam.
