How do we get this project right? How do we reach the outcomes we want? Who needs to be in the room and how do we get them there? These were some of the questions we discussed at our Co-Design Workshop on 12 February.

In early February 2019, the Townsville region experienced its largest rainfall event in 120 years. Rainfall and floodwaters reached unprecedented levels, catching even long-term residents off guard. It was described as a 1-in-100 year event.

Now, just six years later, the region has received almost a metre of rain over one weekend, leading to flash flooding and mass evacuations.

The climate crisis is quite literally on our doorstep.

What a fantastic way to kick off the year! Last night at Grill’d, our first Green Drinks of 2025 brought together a passionate group of changemakers for inspiring conversations and new connections.

We had the great pleasure of hosting Chloe Watfern, who—together with her partner Karl and their family—introduced us to Parents for Climate Townsville and Psychology for a Safe Climate.

Happy New Year!

If January is anything to go by, we have a huge year ahead of us!

I'm sure you've seen the headlines this month - Queensland has been smashed with heatwaves and downpours, Trump has pulled out of the Paris Climate Agreement (again) and Dutton is doubling down on support for nuclear.

The good news? We're taking action - and so can you!

The Queensland Government is developing a 20-year tourism plan for Queensland, and is seeking feedback on key focus areas to help identify and leverage tourism growth opportunities for the next two decades. 

Where and what are the top priorities for environmental protection and restoration in our region? How can we support a local renewable energy transition while protecting and enhancing our environmental values?

Those are the questions we want to answer - and we need your help!

If you've spent any time in North Queensland, there is a good chance you've come across some of our native flying foxes. The Townsville region is home to two species: Black Flying-foxes and Little Red Flying-foxes. They are long-range pollinators, critical to the health of our ecosystems.
