Discovery Coast On-Ground Works Underway |
BMRG was extremely excited to feature on a segment with Bundaberg Now about the excellent work being done within the Discovery Coast project! Restoration of the Kolan River is continuing to progress well, and the Discovery Coast Habitat Restoration Consortium meeting was recently held to evaluate the progress being made toward reducing the fine sediment loads being dumped onto the Great Barrier Reef through erosion processes at sites like the Kolan.

Be Prepared with New Climate Outlook Maps |
As part of the Drought and Climate Adaptation Program, the Bureau of Meteorology has a new service available: extreme climate outlook maps. Effectively monitor your local area for the latest information on extreme climatic conditions. You will be able to watch for the predictions of weather conditions and temperature changes over the coming weeks, months, and seasons, and the likelihood that your area will be affected.

Reducing Feral Pests Reduces Emissions |
Research at the Centre for Invasive Species has determined that destruction of native vegetation by feral herbivores such as rabbits and goats is contributing to Australia’s emissions. Extensive loss of vegetation, which works as a carbon sink, by these pests is contributing to the release of this carbon. Controlling the numbers of these herbivores can therefore reduce Australia's emissions.
