Join us to launch the Queensland Forests Alliance!
The Queensland Forests Alliance brings together the Australian Conservation Foundation, The Wilderness Society, World Wide Fund for Nature and the Queensland Conservation Council to advocate for the urgent regulatory and legislative reform needed to protect nature.
We're campaigning to create the conditions for a new wave of regulatory, technical, incentive based and supply chain reforms to drive down future deforestation rates and encourage large scale and economically viable land restoration in Queensland.
Queensland forests are home to threatened species like the Gouldian Finch, Northern Quoll and iconic Koala.
The latest government data shows that 680,688 hectares of deforestation occurred in Queensland in one year alone, including 80,000 hectares that koalas and other vulnerable wildlife called home.
That's why we are working collaboratively with the alliance to drastically reduce the rate of deforestation.
Join us at the launch to hear from key representatives as we launch our bold plan to protect nature.
