PLANTING AND RECONSTRUCTION

Due to the land clearing that occurred in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s which covered over 99% of our rainforest, NRE has recognised the need and been heavily involved with the revegetation of our landscape.

NRE has planted and grown over 500,000 trees to establish wildlife corridors, improve forest biodiversity, structure and productivity, sequest carbon and create habitat for threatened species such as Alberts Lyrebird, Wompoo Fruit Dove, Koalas and Glossy Black Cockatoos.

NRE has worked with private landholders, community landcare groups, not-for-profit NGAs, all levels of government, the corporate sector, community volunteers and schools.
