General Information

[Q28, Q31]Own Project | Habitat 141 is a large-scale revegetation project in the SW Victoria spanning 150,000km2 classified as a biodiversity hotspot. Its aims are for the conservation, protection and restoration of the ecosystems of this area. Living Trees Project objective is to plant 5,000,000 biodiverse plantings over the next 5 years. This project is conducted in partnership with other organisations and is identified as one of our current major projects.
Other project areas are being identified continually for future projects subject to funding. Living Trees projects focuses on practical on ground works to create a more sustainable environment for future generations. Such projects represent scientific endeavour and lasting environmental repair and restoration of the landscape.

It certified carbon neutralA voluntary mechanism where an activity, event, household, business or organisation is responsible for no net emissions of greenhouse gases and can therefore be declared carbon neutral in that specific area. Carbon neutrality can be achieved by reducing emissions as far as possible (e.g. energy efficiency, purchasing renewable energy) and then purchasing offsets for any residual emissions in order to achieve zero net emissions. products and services and approved abatement credits for sale on the voluntary market. Applications for new abatement projects have closed. These were not considered eligible offsets under NCOSThe Commonwealth Government’s National Carbon Offset Standard (NCOS) came into effect on 1 July 2010 coinciding with the cessation of the Government’s Greenhouse Friendly™ program. It is intended to ensure that consumers have confidence in the voluntary carbon offset market and the integrity of the carbon offset and carbon neutral products they purchase. It provides guidance to businesses who wish to make their organisation carbon neutral or develop carbon neutral products in a way that achieves emissions reductions, through the purchase and cancellation of eligible carbon offsets.
