An incredible show of world wide support saw over 70 actions across 14 countries in 24 hours calling for an end to the destruction of Tasmania's forests.

People gathered to hold banners in snow filled streets, images of the forest were projected onto town buildings, handmade signs were held up in backyards, some stood as silent statues dressed in green, while some took the action to their local area of forest destruction in solidarity and others asked passers-by to 'have a heart for Tassie's forests.'
