MEDIA ALERT: March for Nature

Australian Conservation Foundation < 1 mins read

Hundreds of people will take to the streets of Sydney tomorrow for a big and powerful rally demanding the Albanese government take action to protect Australia's precious species and landscapes. 

The rally coincides with preparations for next week's world-first Global Nature Positive Summit hosted by the Albanese government and stalling negotiations in parliament to fix our broken nature laws.

Australia's extinction crisis is getting worse with much-loved species like the koala and greater glider on the brink. Shamefully, Australia is also a global deforestation hotspot. 

Details: March for Nature: No Nature, No Future!
When: Tomorrow, Saturday 5 October, 11am.
Where: Meet at Speakers Corner, The Domain, Sydney and then march through the Botanical Gardens. 

Media are invited to attend. B-roll and interviews will be sent around at 4pm.

The march is co-hosted by the Australian Conservation Foundation, Birdlife, The Wilderness Society and NSW Conservation Council.  

Please note: this rally has received NSW Police approval and has been planned to cause as little disruption as possible.

Sensor trial hopes to empower managers to monitor bushfire risk?

Bushfires are one of Australia’s greatest challenges and are becoming more frequent and severe due to climate change.  Hazard reduction burns are used to reduce the likelihood and severity of bushfires, but the task of identifying suitable windows of opportunity for prescribed burns is an increasing challenge for fire management agencies due to shifting seasonality or a narrow window of opportunity.  Now scientists are trialling cost-effective sensors which will empower bushfire managers to efficiently monitor the moisture content of bushfire fuel in real time, therefore helping them to better identify prescribed burn opportunities and monitor fire risk.  The Real Time…
