¿Por qué aquí?

Australia dispone de una superficie de más de 7,6 millones de kilómetros cuadrados con bosques naturales que en el pasado se extendían por todo el país. Desde el siglo XVIII, la mitad de sus bosques autóctonos y campos han sido reemplazados o se han degradado a causa de la deforestación, el sobrepastoreo, la explotación minera y la urbanización.

Las enormes extensiones de tierra degradada son una gran amenaza para la biodiversidad de Australia, donde el 80 % de la flora y fauna son endémicas. Dicho de otro modo: si alguna de esas especies se extingue en Australia, desaparecerá en todo el mundo.

Los fenómenos extremos provocados por el cambio climático, como los incendios forestales, la deforestación con fines agrícolas y el sobrepastoreo de ganado han degradado la tierra. Estas enormes extensiones de terreno no podrían regenerarse de forma natural, sin intervención humana. Por eso creamos Land Life.

Nuestro objetivo es restaurar la naturaleza con ecosistemas resilientes y bosques sanos que favorezcan el clima y la biodiversidad y beneficien a la población de Australia.

Nature crisis

Australia is one of the world's 17 megadiverse countries

While these 17 megadiverse countries make up less than 10% of the world’s surface, they support more than 70% of all species. Australia hosts disproportionally large assortments of the world’s plant, animal and fungi life, with many species unique only to Australia, such as koalas, wombats, emus and platypus.

Did you know koalas are endangered?

Australia may be a megadiverse country, but it already has one of the worst extinction rates on Earth, and it’s getting worse. According to the Australian Conservation Foundation, there are now 2,245 Australian ecosystems, plants and animals recognized nationally as being threatened with extinction. And its most iconic species, the koala is endangered. According to even the most generous estimates, only 3% of the estimated pre-colonial population of 10 million animals remain today. The Australian Koala Foundation claim koala populations fell by a shocking 30% between 2018 and 2021 due to widespread drought and bushfires.

global supply chain

Climate change and loss of biodiversity in Australia may have a significant impact on the world's food and fiber supply

A massive 60% of Australia is privately owned or leased for agriculture and 72% of agricultural production is exported. Yet farmers are already grappling with the impacts of climate change. Australian agriculture plays a crucial role in the world's food and fiber supply chain. For example: + Australia is the world's largest barley exporter, accounting for a 5th of global barley trade + The second largest exporter of beef and raw sugar in the world and the fifth largest wine exporter + The leading global supplier of wool and the world's largest wool export nation, producing 45% of global wool exports + Australian wheat accounts for 10 to 15% of the world's annual global wheat trade Now more than ever it's critical to restore degraded land at scale and boost biodiversity in Australia to reduce the impact of climate change.

Working with farmers to restore marginal land

Land Life's Australian team prioritizes the restoration of degraded agricultural land, working with farmers and private landowners to reforest unproductive and/or marginal zones. Our team also considers whether the property will support our goal of establishing wildlife corridors, and the site's potential to deliver biodiversity gains.

Why invest in Australia?

There are many benefits when choosing Australia for your carbon removal restoration project, including:

Economy of scale

  • Access to vast quantities of marginal agricultural land offers buyers significant volumes of carbon

Environment

  • Fast-growing projects due to Australia’s unique, carbon-dense ecosystems
  • Reduced impact from bushfires, as Australia’s native plants are designed to regenerate naturally, requiring less intervention post-fire
  • Safe and stable legal framework supported by streamlined government processes

Legacy

  • Permanency of restoration projects protected under legal perpetuity
  • Opportunity to drive cultural and social impact for Traditional Owners, including employment and land access for Indigenous communities
  • Vital restoration of habitat and creation of extensive wildlife corridors to support Australia's extinction crisis, including endangered koalas

Indigenous Engagement

“I’ve been working with Land Life in Australia since their very first nature restoration project in 2019. As a proud Dja Dja Wurrung man and Land Life’s Indigenous Liaison Manager, I’m empowered to work alongside the team to reach out to Traditional Owner groups in the regions we’re working in. We discuss how to work together to successfully deliver projects, such as tapping into 65,000+ years of traditional knowledge of the local land and waterways, and identifying opportunities for Traditional Owners to gain economic and cultural benefits from the project site.”

Frequently Asked Questions

How does it work with registration and issuance of credits?

  • Land Life sends the details of your project to VERRA upon completion of planting. VERRA-certified independent auditors conduct a comprehensive evaluation of your reforestation project and validate the amount of carbon sequestration. VERRA then issues your Verified Carbon Units (VCU) valid for a 40 year period. You choose when to retire these VCUs.

Invest in Nature

Want to plant trees in Australia, but don't need to invest in carbon sequestration?

Our South Australian 'Talia' Project offers CSR opportunities to build vital biolinks for vulnerable and threatened species, while mitigating climate change. This large-scale restoration project will restore habitat for furry Australian mammals such as bandicoots, wombats and bettongs, as well as threatened native bird species including the Diamond Firetail. Investing in this project will also provide meaningful social and economic development outcomes for the Traditional Owners of Talia - the Wirangu and Nauo First Peoples.
