Terrain Natural Resource Management, based in Innisfail, has been working closely with Biocarbon Pty Ltd since 2007 to pilot the joint Degree Celsius terrestrial carbon initiative. This project, recently recognised by the Eureka Prize for Innovative Solutions to Climate Change, has provided a framework for land managers to participate in aggregated regional biocarbon pools. 

The Fitzroy Basin Association has been working diligently with landholders across the region to address a range of factors impacted by, and impacting on climate change. Programs designed to increase the long-term resilience of all natural assets and systems to climate change are currently being run on a range of levels, from species to ecosystems, and paddocks to catchments.

Reef Catchments has launched their new Reef Rescue newsletter for the Mackay Whitsunday region. Reef Rescue, which is in its 2nd funding year, is part of the federal government’s ‘Caring for our Country’ program. The newsletter reviews the first year’s activities, gives case studies and identifies key contact officers across the cane, horticultural and grazing industries.

The Burnett Mary Regional Group for NRM Inc (BMRG) is leading a Community Coastcare project designed to increase the community’s awareness of shorebirds. The project, Feathering the Future of the Burnett Mary, will include hosting a number of dog walkers’ breakfasts, school activities and community events around the region to let us all know how important our shorebirds are.

Nine new Aboriginal Rangers will soon be on the ground in the Queensland Murray-Darling Basin, helping land managers protect the environment and combat pest and weed threats.
