Green by Nature
partnered with
Greenfleet in 2021
to take climate action.
Greenfleet is a leading not-for-profit organisation and Australia’s first carbon offset provider.
We supported the planting of 30,000 square metres of native forest on Djaara Country in Central Victoria to restore biodiversity and endangered temperate woodlands. The site is called Ngulambarra, which means “meeting place” in Dja Dja Wurrung language
These endangered temperate woodlands used to make up large areas of South-Eastern Australia, however since European settlement, major portions of woodland ecosystems have disappeared due to land clearing.
Throughout the Ngulambarra project, more than 20 native tree plant species were planted, helping to reconnect habitat for many endangered or threatened wildlife species in the region, as the ecosystem becomes established. It also improves site hydrology and reduces soil erosion and salinity.
For the past two years, Green by Nature established a Carbon Offset Christmas tradition to celebrate with those we work with. In 2021, we offset the equivalent of many of our clients’ households for the Christmas month, and in 2022 we did the same for a large portion of our client’s vehicles for three months. We sent the certificates (see attached) to our clients to encourage enthusiasm and excitement around how easy it is to help reduce your carbon footprint. We have offset nearly 1,000 tonnes of carbon over the past two years.
To ensure we are increasing environmental awareness and momentum, many staff were offered the chance to participate in planting days with Greenfleet.This included a planting at Ngulambarra.
