If we could buy just one property in the Daintree Lowland Rainforest for conservation Lot 157 Cape Tribulation Road at Diwan would be the one. The endangered Cassowary, rare Bennett’s Tree-kangaroo, and the Musky Rat-kangaroo are all found here, however, on this 8.0937-hectare property, it is the rainforest itself that is exceptionally important.

Rare, endangered, and endemic, the plants found on Lot 157 Cape Tribulation Road justify its immediate purchase and protection. 

The Daintree Rainbowfish was only discovered in 2018 yet it has already been listed as Critically Endangered. They are only known to exist in the Cooper and Hutchinson creek systems of the Daintree Lowland Rainforest and the number one action needed to ensure their survival is habitat protection. 

A bridge over the Daintree River will cause irreversible damage to World Heritage values and will fuel further development along the Daintree coast. Thousands of people have added their voice to calls to urgently stop this bridge.

On my most recent visit to the Daintree Rainforest, I went to see a property I was planning to purchase for conservation only to find someone else has beaten us to it. The outcome is devastating. 

Recovery from the November 2019 bushfires in Northern NSW continued yesterday with the planting of another 100 trees at Huonbrook and the removal of exotic weeds to support the natural regeneration of the sub-tropical rainforest. 

We’ve provided answers to the most frequently asked questions on the purchase and protection of Lot 157 Cape Tribulation Road, Diwan in the Daintree Lowland Rainforest.  

We are excited to announce our support for the Triple Switch for Earth divestment campaign to continue building a safer future for wildlife, climate, people, climate, and our Planet!

Thanks to the generous contributions of thousands of donors last weekend we reached our goal of raising the $220,875 to purchase and protect Lot 155 in the Daintree Lowland Rainforest. This ensures this important property won't be developed for housing and essential habitat for the endangered Cassowary will be protected forever. The settlement on the property has been scheduled for October. All further funds received this week will be used to pay the deposit on the purchase of another property which we will announce soon. Thank you once again to all of the wonderful donors!

Planting trees provides hope of a positive future for Wildlife, Climate, People, and the Planet. Over the last month, we've been busy planting trees at four locations in Far North Queensland and Northern New South Wales.
