A SPLIT emerged in the environment movement yesterday when fringe groups repeated threats to continue protesting against native forest logging, despite the agreement that was supposed to end decades of forestry conflict.
Still Wild Still Threatened and the Huon Valley Environment Centre said forests were still under threat.
And Miranda Gibson, the tree-sitter in the southern forests Styx Valley, said she would not come down.
A key outcome of the peace deal was recognition of some 504,000ha of reserves in exchange for an end to protests and market campaigns by environmentalists in overseas markets. The two groups last week closed Ta Ann plants with protests.
"I have made the commitment to stay in the Observer Tree until the forest is protected and as this is still uncertain, I will be remaining in the tree," Ms Gibson said.
Jenny Weber, of the Huon Valley Environment Centre, said the deal left little room for confidence that more than 395,000ha would be reserved.
But signatories to the deal -- Environment Tasmania, the Australian Conservation Foundation and the Wilderness Society -- said the Tasmanian Forests Agreement was the path to conflict resolution.
