GOOLENGOOK
SPECIAL

Goolengook
is a unique area of ancient forest in east gippsland in victoria.
In 1996, the government scheduled the area for logging, prompting the
longest-running blockade the country has seen.
This
week's episode contains two stories:
"goolengook: the story so far"
produced
soon after the protest camp was busted in 1997, and
"woodstop 98",
which exposes the privatisation of forest management in
east gippsland.
A government officer (Gary Squires) awarded the harvesting contract
to a company (East Gippsland Logging) which is now payed by the government
to supply itself with timber.
Gary Squires then transferred to a job as the head of East Gippsland
Logging.

Rokkasho
: Japan's Nuclear Village

Rokkasho
Village in northern Japan is the site of the largest nuclear fuel
complex in the world.
It has seen over a decade of opposition by local citizens, who fear
another Chernobyl in their own country.
The video reveals links between dangers to Rokkasho village and risks
to the entire world.
Through the testimonies of Kei Shimada (a Japanese photographer),
other activists, scientists and public officals from many countries,
diverse aspects of opposition to international nuclear programs are
highlighted.
Renewable energy is presented as an alternative.
Produced by Plutonium Free Future.
