English term or phrase: log in the World Heritage Area

Tasmania is the poorest state in Australia, and it has a fierce loyalty to forestry, mining, and hydropower. The state's resource battles are reminiscent of environmental fights around the globe, except here they're on a finite stage, which makes the island a sort of petri dish for the rest of us. Last summer, Tasmania's Parliament passed the historic Tasmanian Forest Agreement, which will add 420,000 acres to the existing Tasmanian Wilderness World Heritage Area and transfer a total of 1.2 million acres of vulnerable native forests from Forestry Tasmania to the Parks and Wildlife Service.

If the right-wing Liberal Party comes to power this spring, however, its leadership has vowed to reverse the agreement and log in the World Heritage Area.

Meanwhile, many of the remaining disease-free Tasmanian devils live in the Tarkine, a 1.2-million-acre unprotected wilderness also in a conservation battle. Environmentalists are lobbying for national park and World Heritage status, but competing for space are timber leases and proposals for ten new tin and iron-ore mines, slated to roll into operation over the next five years.
