Firewood Collection
Collecting firewood is one of humankind’s oldest activities. Australians enjoy the beauty and warmth of a wood fire, and they remain a popular source of heating in many parts of the country but many firewood users are unaware of the ecological price of collecting dead trees and fallen logs. It is now recognised that the removal of this wood is contributing to a significant loss of wildlife habitat in some areas – particularly in South East Queensland.
For this reason the federal government brought in the National Certification Scheme for firewood merchants. To become a Certified Environmental Firewood Supplier the merchant must agree to abide by a national voluntary code of practice that is designed to promote the sustainable use of firewood by ensuring merchants obtain wood from sources that do not threaten the conservation of flora and fauna in forest and woodland ecosystems.
PR Firewood have always endeavored to follow this code of practice since starting our business in 1999.
