On the one hand, we’re working desperately to repair the environment
See – https://EcoReefProject.com 

On the other hand, we allow this to happen 

  • Yesterday trees that were marked for preservation were cut down illegally in the space of a few minutes
  • These trees have been a haven for wildlife for decades
  • The same wildlife is shuffling around with nowhere to go
  • This little bugger is still alive (thanks to WIRES) but without a mother
  • The rainbow lorikeets, mynas, skinks, and other humble lives are homeless and confused
  • Is there something we can do to prevent this from re-occurring?
  • The answer is a resounding YES!
  • And it has nothing to do with another piddling fine against a multi-million dollar powerhouse after the event

I am pointing the finger at your council NOT in blame, but because I think local councils can lead the way

Stay tuned and/or contact us

Have a nice day

What is an EcoReef?

No Comments

 

What is an EcoReef?
In its simplest form, an EcoReef is a collection of organic material such as twisted branches, as well as rocks and rubble bound together with a long lasting binder. This combination forms a protective ‘cave’ to protect flora and fauna from their inception and on through the juvenile stage until they can fend for themselves.
 Twisted branches and organic material lock together to form a mesh surfaces for living organisms to adhere to
 Rocks weight branches for stability
 Binders ensure that rocks and branches remain locked together long enough for nature to take over
 Each EcoReef locks together with other reefs to form an enclave where biodiversity can thrive

Does water recreation damage waterways?

1 Comment

 Does water recreation damage waterways?
Water recreation can have both positive and negative impacts on waterways.
It does depend on the activities, locations, water connections and conditions in the water.
The benefits of water recreation can enhance health, long-term upkeep and promotion of environmental understanding and knowledge.
It may add unwanted contaminants into the water.
It also may disturb and change the natural balance of ecosystems & habitats.
Also, it may add general rubbish and pollution.

 Here’s a super-efficient ‘Mangrove Slicer’ at work
demolishing next year’s fish catch in a river right next to you.

 

But it doesn’t need to be this way.

·        
We CAN turn the river back the way it was

·        
We CAN clean her waters

·        
We CAN save our precious fish stocks

·        
We CAN avoid a devastating food shortage

·        
We CAN do it now AT LITTLE OR NO COST, and

·        
We CAN do it NOW by protecting Mangroves so they
can regenerate over many years

The EcoReef Project

Together we CAN.

Does every day human life hurt our waterways?

No Comments

 Does everyday human life hurt our waterways?
No, it does not if we are just using them for basic natural recreation like swimming, snorkeling, picnics in parks near water or anything like that.
But it does hurt if we pollute or damage or use specific gear that can damage the waterways by hurting it for example destroying or stirring up water beds or anything that hurts the environment.
But
We can find a way so both parties can get the best out of using our waterways and it just takes some respect, thought, and care and we can use the environment and it can sustain for further periods of time. We just have to care and think about what exactly we are doing.

Can we improve our waterways manually?

2 Comments

Can we improve our waterways manually?

The answer is Yes & it is not that complicated as we already do it in some areas already.

We already do it in these areas of the environment:

  • We clean up pollution
  • Breed new fish to go back into nature
  • We sometimes even rebuild waterway base structures
  • Improving our climate
  • Growing and controlling plants in areas
  • Revegetation
  • Reshaping of waterways
There is so much we can already do and are already doing. We have to continue and do more.
