Greening Australia |Restore the Land

$50 PLANTS ENOUGH NATIVE TREES AND SHRUBS TO STORE ONE TONNE OF CARBON DIOXIDE

Greening Australia has been restoring and preserving Australia's unique landscapes for over 37 years, concentrating on Australia's most significant environmental challenges. Their mission is to protect and restore landscapes at scale, through collaborative, science-based and innovative conservation programs. Some of the projects they're focused on include saving the Great Barrier Reef, tackling climate change, reversing the decline of our threatened species and supporting our Traditional Owners aspirations for restoring country, creating sustainable cities for people and wildlife, and supporting regenerative agriculture and forestry systems. The 'Restoring the Land' project aims to restore 330,000 hectares of native trees across Australia by 2030.

Drawing on the expert input of Traditional Owners, scientists and local land managers, Greening Australia will plant 500 million trees and shrubs to store carbon, create quality habitat for native wildlife, and revive degraded farmland. These 500 million trees and shrubs will absorb over 1.3 million tonnes of carbon dioxide per year by 2030, and reduce atmospheric carbon pollution. This project is one of the world's largest and most ambitious ecological restoration programs. Greening Australia acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the places in which we work and honours the profound cultural, social, environmental, spiritual and economic connection they share with their lands and waters.
