Don't ya just want to get all cozy in that tree with him?! šŸ˜ Koalas are found in the eucalyptus forests of Australia. Their strong clawed feet are ideal for living (or snuggling) among the trees! They generally eat eucalyptus leaves and hardly drink anything at all because of all the moisture they receive from the leaves. When Koalas aren't eating they are sleeping. In fact, they sleep up to 18 hours a day! They really live the dream don't they?

Native plant species are reclaiming their territory as they bounce back in habitats that weā€™ve disturbed. This is the heartening finding from University of New South Wales researcher, Ms Susan Everingham.

My parents place had a easement/ creek running through it. Most of the time itā€™s full and supports frogs and little fish and yabbies from time to time. Itā€™s been so dry that the creek has completely dried up. Ive only ever seen it that way a few times, in flooding events it can reach almost 2m high with raging water. Now itā€™s dry you can see the rubbish that has floated down and stuck in the mud. This easement runs out to the Moreton Bay and to the ocean.

I pulled this bait bag out of the mud and disposed of it where it supposed to go! This piece of plastic could have ended up in the ocean and harmed our marine life. We have turtles, dugong and even whales come through the passage. If you fish please do it thoughtfully and donā€™t discard your litter.

Ecosystem goods and services is an area Iā€™ve just finished learning about at university. The world around us provides us with many ecosystem goods and services we rely on daily, trees produce oxygen for us to breath but are also considered a use for timber production for development. Rivers provide water for consumption but also provide a service to the ecosystem around it. Beautiful areas to visit like waterfalls, national parks, beaches and our beautiful mountain ranges all provide an aesthetically pleasing service which we enjoy. Areas may have a cultural goods and services.

Whilst we rely on so many services the ecosystems around us for everyday living we must not exploit them in which large developments do. Taking down forests for clearing is also reducing the air quality around us with the potential for pollution to increase. Letā€™s not take these things for granted and be more environmentally sustainable.

Forests are essentially carbon banks. They are the lungs of the earth and play a vital role in storing and sequestering carbon. Throughout Australia there has been significant land clearing leading to carbon storage diminishing in vast areas of Australian forests. As trees grow so does their carbon storage, meaning the larger the trees that are logged and cut down, the larger the carbon bank destroyed. If we stop the rate of land clearing and start acting on replacing and regrowing these forests, this can allow trees to mature and thus increase carbon storage. Letā€™s also not forget that trees produce oxygen which we rely on!

Climate change poses a significant threat to the forests and will increase the cost economically, socially and environmentally.
