Project Updates
Can accountants save the planet? Adventures in Natural Capital Accounting.
As a Landcare coordinator I’m motivated to understand this space from a new perspective. Can I understand this space enough to coordinate, facilitate, support and develop meaningful connections and conversations in my own community? How many Natural Capital dollars are there for us as Landcare groups and members and do the values of the Natural Capital market and Landcare even align?
Salinity Mapping in the Mid Lachlan Landcare Region
Mid Lachlan Landcare have been monitoring, measuring and mapping salinity in our waterways since 2022 using a test method that’s fast, cost-effective, flexible and non-invasive. The data we collect is being collated to form an accessible water quality data set to help our community manage salinity in our landscape.
Will’s Working Bee
2025 has been a great year for on-ground working bee’s which, thanks to our Glossy Black Cockatoo planting project resulted in 60 volunteers (approximately 240 volunteer hours) across 6 planting events! Brilliant stuff, but that wasn’t enough for you apparently and we’ve been asked to provide MORE working bee’s which is totally amazing.

I joined the project as an individual this year to get a feel for the nuances and challenges around recording bug life.
