Australia’s native forests hold immense value as carbon sinks3, far surpassing their worth as logged timber4. By protecting these forests that are presently threatened by logging for carbon storage and nature protection, we can generate high-integrity carbon credits. These credits can be sold by state governments to companies needing to offset or reduce their carbon emissions, unlocking significant new revenue.

This revenue can be reinvested into practical forest management, including fire management, pest and weed control, and forest restoration. 

Investing in practical forest management not only creates jobs but also protects and restores nature. Now is the time to leverage billions of dollars from carbon credits to protect, restore, and manage our forests more effectively than ever before.
