21.01.2022 Team members Catherine and Louise were served a big dose of optimism thanks to TEDxPerth yesterday. Imagine a decarbonised economy where the climate has stablilised, and resources secure so future generations can peacefully enjoy their time caretaking our earth. Imagine a world where native environments are thriving, and we have clean air and water. ... Imagine the benefits of incorporating First Nation's knowledge of country so we use our resources productively but without destroying them. The team heard from business and community leaders that this can be a reality. Many organisations have already committed to this course and are succeeding, but we need faster uptake and momentum. We are often told that we will lose out economically without our traditional industries, but business as usual is becoming financially risky with uncertain outcomes. In transitioning, we have the opportunity for a more robust and equitable economy, and the sooner we take action the better the climate outcome. As Christiana Figueres said yesterday, Imagine the future you want and use ‘determined optimism’ to reach it. #carbonpositiveaustralia #carbonpositive #TEDxPerth #climatechange #climateaction #climatesolutions #climateleadership #perthbusiness #wabusiness #businessolutions #yourfootprint #australiastrees #ourfuture

19.01.2022 We’ve joined Smartgroup’s National Vehicle Offset Program. Smartgroup customers who choose to offset the carbon emissions of their novated leased vehicles are now contributing to planting native trees at Eurardy Reserve, which is located on one of only 34 biodiversity hotspots recognised globally. On average, offsetting the carbon emissions of a small car will equate to 27 trees being planted, for a medium-sized car, it’s 32 trees and for a larger car, 36 trees will be plan...ted. Annually the new partnership will aim to see over a quarter of a million trees planted at Eurardy.

17.01.2022 We are excited to announce our new 2021 planting project near Nimbin, New South Wales. The project, which will provide a corridor between two national parks, is on 29 hectares of Widjabul Country. A corridor allows for species movements from one area to another and provides a means of moving to habitats that supports species development. We are hoping to increase habitat for endangered species including koalas. We will also increase stocking in the dry rainforest area which... will improve biodiversity and encourage further natural regeneration. To find our more head to the link below, and make sure to sign up to our newsletter to keep updated on all of Carbon Positive Australia’s projects. https://carbonpositiveaustralia.org.au/our-work/nimbin-nsw/

12.01.2022 Welcome to NAIDOC Week for 2020. NAIDOC week is an opportunity for all Australians to celebrate Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander history, culture, and achievements. Always Way, Always Will Be is the theme for NAIDOC Week 2020 and reminds all Australian’s that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people have occupied and cared for this land for over 65,000 years. This week presents an opportunity for all Australians to learn about the history and connections to the land ...of Indigenous Australians who hold an innermost understanding of the country that has enabled them to endure climate change and natural disasters. Carbon Positive Australia acknowledges the traditional custodians of the land throughout Australia and pays respect to Elders, past, present, and emerging and we would like to start the first day of NAIDOC week today by giving thanks to the traditional owners of Widjabul Bundjalung, Koreng Noongar, Minang Noongar, Nanda, Balardong Noongar, Goreng Noongar, and Amangu Noongar country in reference to our planting projects. Thank you to Alex Birdfox, as a supporter of Carbon Positive Australia and for allowing us to share your work. This piece is entitled Three Mountains. The Three Mountains are multifaceted and reveal a different story from each unique perspective of viewing, which is captured in the white dots. The piece explores the diverse individual perspectives, as seen in the pink dots, that can occur from looking at the same object from a different point and serves as a reminder of the importance of open communication, empathy, and the understanding of other's perspectives. Alex is of Wiradjuri descent, Yuin born and raised, and creates modern indigenous art on Darkinjung Land. You can find out more by heading to @alexbirdfox via Instagram.

She has won numerous aw...ards, including 2020 Bird Photographer of the Year with Australian Geographic, Wildlife Photographer of the Year 2018, and the Australian Geographic Nature Photographer of the Year in 2016.

12.01.2022 Jeff has told his employees that he is offsetting his business emissions, working towards a goal of becoming carbon positive. Jane has told her employees she is offsetting her business emissions, working towards a goal of becoming carbon negative. Terminology in the carbon world has always been a bit of an issue, and there has been some misunderstanding between the terms carbon positive and/or carbon negative, but whether the organisation says it’s positive or negative, thei...r goals are the same. We prefer the term carbon positive because of the many other benefits that accrue from meeting the goal. We want to live in a world where we all play an active role in climate solutions; where we support each other to not just turn around climate change, but innovate and create solutions that ensure a healthy future for generations to come.
