This is a great little success story of how erosion control is supercharged through shared knowledge, resources, and innovative techniques.
Read more about a great field day held recently on a beautiful sunny Friday, where Scenic Rim and Ipswich Resilient Rivers Initiative Officer, Anna Shera, co-led a day that showcased recent erosion control works throughout the Warrill and Bremer catchments, undertaken by Healthy Land & Water and the Resilient Rivers Initiative.
We don’t talk about them as much, but blue spaces can have an equally beneficial impact on our health and wellbeing as green spaces. In fact, the science has been consistently putting forward for more than a decade that being by water is good for body and mind.
The voluntary carbon market can supercharge rapid action in reviving ecosystems on a massive scale, drive cutting-edge tech adoption, and funnel big bucks into high-impact projects within our tight timeline for change.
Regrettably, though, the market is still in its infancy and to date has fallen short of attracting the essential financial investments required for significant scaling and innovation.
Here is a great chance to get a behind-the-scenes look at how nature-based technology is building disaster resilience, and reducing erosion and nutrient discharge into waterways, all while conserving cultural heritage.
On-ground works have progressed at five of nine designated sites as part of the Lower Caboolture Resilience and Nutrients Offset Program, and our project team has given us the low-down on some great insights from the works so far.
An exciting $4.2 million project is going to keep our team and partners very busy safeguarding and securing the future of koalas for the next three years!
The mission is crystal clear: to identify and address the priority threats looming over our beloved koalas in South East Queensland.
New research by Farming for the Future has shown that enhancing natural capital can generally boost farm performance, and even if a tradeoff point exists, most farms have not yet reached it.
89% of land managers reported problems due to feral animals in 2022, up from 85% in 2019. This is according to the 2022 Australian Bureau of Agricultural and Resource Economics and Sciences (ABARES) survey on pests and weeds, the third of its kind on a national scale.
