Ripper of a talk by Brodie Crouch on maintaining brigalow cover in grazing landscapes at #ESAus2024 just now.. in Brodie’s words, “if we had 20% brigalow cover in every paddock we’d be laughing” 🦤 🌏 🐮 🌳

Holly Bradley detailing a new project designing guidelines for artificial habitat design in mine site rehab at #ESAus2024. Also advertising Masters’ projects on related topics @curtinuniversity.bsky.social! 🦤🌏

@martinemaron.bsky.social on the decades long struggle to stop senseless Queensland agricultural land clearing at #ESAus2024 🦤🌏

Gave the last talk of my PhD at #ESAus2024 on target-based compensation for achieving #biodiversity net gain on Tuesday. In short: only feasible in a few ecoregions with nickel mining in Indonesia, and expansion in the most mined area globally not compatible with 50% intact forest retention 🦤🌏🌐

>47,000 tree species were recently added to the IUCN Red List, with 35% assessed as threatened. There's still another ~26,000 to assess, ~1/3 of which remain undescribed, but great to see plants getting more #conservation attention🌿🌳🦤🌍
