They are worthmore to the local community and to the planet if they are left intact inthe ground.ABC News reported on 17 June 2009 that a study has been carried out byenvironmental scientist Professor Brendan Mackey of the Australian NationalUniversity which identified that mountain ash forests in Victoria\u2019s CentralHighlands as the best in the world at locking up carbon.Mackey and colleagues found the highest amount of carbon was contained in aforest located in Victoria\u2019s Central Highlands, which held 1900 tonnes ofcarbon per hectare. This most \u201ccarbon-dense\u201d forest was a stand ofun-logged mountain ash over 100 years old.Karina Doughty from Warburton Environment says:'These forests must be protected as a home for wildlife, for the clean airand drinking water they provide to Melbournians, and to help buffer thedangerous effects of climate change.'","thumbnail_url":"http:\/\/farm8.staticflickr.com\/7134\/6998562080_961c1b85b4_z.jpg"}
