An Australian community for everything from your backyard to beyond the black stump.
Topics may include Aussie plants and animals, environmental, farming, energy, and climate news and stories (mostly Aus specific), etc. New related communities will be split off when required, think like subcommunities that exist on that other platform.
Trigger Warning: Community contains mostly bad environmental news (not by choice!). Community may also feature stories about animal agriculture and/or meat. Until tagging is available, please be aware and click accordingly.

MODERATORS
That article had a great visualization of the satellite data. That positive aside, it's not all that surprising to see this happen if the company can claim that the land is in the process of regenerating and still absolve themselves of responsibility.
The Forest Landscape Restoration Handbook advocates an approach in which indigenous peoples, the rest of the local population, and the non-/governmental agencies have equal seats at the table when addressing restoration goals and plans. It would be amazing to see what you all could do, given stakeholder status for the long term.
