Carbon Landscapes plans, designs and implements projects that achieve other environmental outcomes such as improving river health, establishing strategic wildlife corridors and creating refugia for wildlife, as well as many other environmental objectives.

We invest in projects that mitigate against climate change through carbon sequestration but also make our landscapes more resilient and adaptable to climate change. Examples include strategic revegetation such as biolinks and buffering remnant areas of vegetation to link and increase existing habitat so that our native wildlife can move across the landscape. This is important as our climate changes as well for frequent events such as bushfires occur.

We believe in seeking local solutions to landscape scale problems. We will rely on the local knowledge of private landholders, public land managers, traditional owners and community groups such as Landcare for local expertise. We will always use the best available local information to plan, design, implement, manage and monitor our projects.

Ensuring that our projects meet current best management practices is important to Carbon Landscapes. We pride ourselves that we are using the best available information to plan, design, implement, manage and monitor our projects. To ensure that we meet current best management practices we refer to the state’s Revegetation Planting Standards, use NatureKit and local GIS expertise to plan our projects and work in partnership with Seeding Victoria to ensure native seed is appropriately sourced.

Carbon Landscapes will partner with some of Australia’s leading research institutions to ensure research, and the learnings from it, guide our work. We will continue to co-invest with researchers and continually learn and share our findings to enable others to also acquire this knowledge.

We ensure that those that support our activities can monitor their support through receiving regular updates, opportunities to be involved in hands on experiences related to their projects through tree planting, fauna surveys and other associated activities. Carbon Landscapes is also developing our innovative ways people can observe the progress of the projects that they support.
