Habitat for the Future
Content about land clearing, vegetation clearing, habitat destruction, carbon loss, and the impact that removing native bushland has on wildlife, soil, climate, and biodiversity.
A few days ago in Southeast Queensland, I was lucky enough to capture a deeply precious moment: a female koala resting quietly in a tree, with her tiny joey tucked safely in her pouch. It is a beautiful reminder of what we still have — and a heartbreaking reminder of what we stand to lose […]
Big solar projects are often described as clean, smart, and future-focused. We are told they will help lower emissions, create jobs, and build a better world. That sounds good. But there is another side to the story, and it is one Australia should not ignore. The SunCable project, also known as the Australia-Asia PowerLink, is […]
This little girl’s home is right near a main road. More accurately it’s either side of a main road and every time she crosses to get to the other side, she risks her life to get there. Humans keep cutting down trees more and they don’t replant enough to cover what’s been cut down. We […]
This question isn’t a common thought but refers to ‘smog’ which is air pollution produced by burning fossil fuels. This air pollution contributes to the greenhouse gases that are caught in our atmosphere, aiding an increase in the earth’s temperature. The image above, taken over the east coast of Australia, shows a slight browning surrounding […]
When land is cleared of all vegetation, there is nothing to hold onto the soil and literally the soil gets blown or washed away. In a recent rain event this was very evident in Southeast Queensland, Australia. In the catchment area for the Bundamba Creek there has been lots of land cleared. See the impact […]
This is a classic example of what we are about, we want to acquire this land and revegetate it. If we lived in an ideal world, we would have acquired this land before it was cleared and manage the land to preserve the habitat for the future. The images below are the before the 4,000 […]
There are many ways land is cleared and each time it is cleared this reduces Habitat. It also reduces this earth’s ability to process Carbon Dioxide back into oxygen, which we all need to breathe and give us life. When you look further into land clearing there are multiple methods such as: Once the land is […]
