We are the voice for the environment in North Queensland. We advocate on regional environmental issues, representing the area roughly bounded by Bowen, Cardwell, the Coral Sea and the Northern Territory border.

Our mission is to influence, educate and inspire our North Queensland community to achieve an ecologically sustainable society.

You can learn all about our work on this website, in our latest Annual Report, or by contacting us directly. If you would like to support what we do, you could join as a member, donate, volunteer, attend our events or follow us on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

    Paperbark

    You may be wondering why you're reading your September Paperbark in October. The answer is quite simple - with so much happening in the lead-up to our AGM, we thought we'd hold out until the Official Business was over before sending you our monthly update. Apologies for the suspense!

    There has been a staggering amount of environmental news to report on over the past several weeks, but as this edition of Paperbark is a little longer than usual (jam-packed with updates, opportunities and other interesting stuff), we'll dive right in.

    Trivia 2020

    Join us for our Annual Fundraising Trivia Night and help us to raise some funds for North Queensland's environment!

    It's always a great night and one that we await with much anticipation each year! Of course, this year is going to look a little different. Our venue can allow for only 50 people, including volunteers and children. As such, we ask that teams purchase their tickets in advance, as we will likely not be selling tickets at the door. 

    This year you will compete in teams of six. Bonus points will be awarded to the first, second and third teams registered and paid for, so get your team together quickly! 

    The bar will be open, with EFTPOS available. Please bring cash bribes if you want to play dirty! 

    A nutritious vegan dinner will be provided, but please BYO snacks (as unfortunately share platters are currently outlawed). No BYO alcohol.

    Please contact us with any allergies or nutritional requirements. 

    COVID-19 Information

    If you are feeling unwell on the night of the event, we ask that you stay home. In this instance, please let us know and your ticket will be refunded in full.

    We ask that you practice good hand hygiene and social distancing. Your health is our priority but your responsibility. Thanks for your co-operation!
