Happy World Environment Day! A day to reflect on how we interact with and preserve our environment. If we protect the environment in our own backyards, we will protect the local environment at a broader scale. You can reduce your impact on your environment in many simple ways.
Come and meet us โup in lightsโ next Friday, 9 June, at ArtWalk. It's a fabulous night of art and fun, and we will be sharing information with some great creative koala kids activities. You'll also meet Kasey, our koala mascot!

Twenty-six koalas have died this year after being hit by a motor vehicle in the Port Macquarie local government area. We call on drivers to please be aware of animals entering the road. Motorists play a major role in lowering koala fatalities by adjusting their driving behaviour.
Today's the 53rd annual Earth Day! Please don't let this one go by without making a lifestyle change that could improve biodiversity or otherwise lessen your impact on the environment around you.

DID YOU KNOW? Koala fur is amazingly thick and helps to insulate them from rain and cold and also solar radiation. Sadly, koalas used to be hunted for this amazing fur, but thankfully that industry was shut down in 1927.

This is SEA WEEK. Oceans and seas facilitate all life, both aquatic and terrestrial, the world over. Without clean, functioning oceans, life would not persist on Earth. If we take care of our oceans, they will continue to take care of us.
