Regen Farmers Mutual has been a core partner in helping Landcare Victoria find business models that better support landcare networks by accessing pools of capital beyond grants. These include: Environmental Markets, Supply Chains and Local Economy Opportunities. This years efforts saw 2 regions pilot our Landscape Impact Planning process and will see a further 2 pilots in 2025 that incorporate our joint learnings from 2024. These will be better equipped and no less exciting. Bring on the next 2 VIC landscapes.

Trees play such an important role in our ecosystems, and WILDTRUST is encouraging all of us to join its Arbour Month initiative. Read the story here: https://lnkd.in/d_hd6K4c

A win for community organising and the arid lands - Buffel grass has been declared a weed across the Northern Territory! Buffel grass is a major threat to biodiversity, transforming landscapes and altering fire regimes. This landmark decision is the result of decades of relentless advocacy and community organizing. A victory is not just for the community but for the desert plants and animals that desperately needed this outcome. Now, to get on with stoping the spread! To understand the issue and possible solutions check out the Arid Lands Environment Centre’s position paper, Firestorm - Understanding the risks and seizing the opportunities to better manage buffel grass across the Territory. - https://lnkd.in/g_3XmeNw

Last week at Warwick University, we saw how England's landscapes are being transformed through the Natural Environment Investment Readiness Fund (NEIRF). NEIRF is an innovative way to finance nature recovery and leverage partnership working. Our funded projects are turning wetlands into business opportunities, protecting rivers through innovative farming, and creating wildlife corridors that work for both nature and local economies. We’re announcing the full list of Round 3 grantees, supporting new ways for farmers to take part in nature markets. Read more: https://lnkd.in/gxjbxEYZ

🦉 How much do you know about Little Owl? They're cute, they’re small, they’re fluffy. They are also an indicator of healthy ecosystems. Adorably, little owls want to be our neighbors, and find the most comfort near human settlements! They are what’s called a ‘synanthropic species,’ which means they thrive best close to human settlements rather than in complete wilderness. Or to be more precise: they need the right blend of human settlement and natural diversity. But guess what? They are being driven out of their homes by human activity. Their nesting sites are under threat from farming, pesticide use, big agriculture, ground clearance, and various other human interventions. This has resulted in their decline on the European mainland, putting them on the Species of European Conservation Concern. That's why last year, we installed 25 nesting boxes to help bring the owls to a self-sustaining population in an area close to Berlin. The result: more than half were occupied by owl families, making it a huge success! But the work is not over, and this year, we’re going back to support our feathered friends and bring even more funding. Stay tuned for our next mission. Curious about last year’s mission? We’ve got you covered: https://lnkd.in/dUcPnNFE

Creative simulators - under construction ♻️🌏 In a rapidly evolving world grappling with pressing environmental challenges, the imperative for greenovation– the fusion of green principles and innovation – has become increasingly paramount. Embracing a paradigm shift towards sustainable systems and a green economy, creativity emerges as a transformative catalyst propelling us towards a regenerative future. By harnessing the power of green creative thinking and fostering a culture of greenovation, we can ignite the sparks of ingenuity and cultivate a world where creativity serves as the linchpin for driving sustainable development and environmental stewardship. 🔜🔜🔜 @ ZWCC 🌏✅♻️💦

Please support this effort. Plankton represent the largest continuous ecological group on the planet. Yet at high levels we hardly discuss them, the impacts that climate change have upon them from a holistic angle, the critical role that their diversity plays in food webs and sustainability or in biogeochemical cycles, nor do we teach about them to the young generation. We need to change this situation

In 2018, Kenvue stopped mowing 25 acres of its lawn connected to its manufacturing plant in Guelph, Ontario, Canada, allowing the lawn to naturalize. After 2 years, the company was met with impressive results. Learn how this small effort increased biodiversity and restored the area's ecosystem in our white paper, Aligning Corporate Nature Actions to the Global Biodiversity Framework, sponsored by Cemex: https://lnkd.in/gCfj9TFP
