Homes for all – Save our iconic wildlife

In response to a housing summit of late 2022 the Queensland Government has just released a draft update to the South East Queensland Regional Plan. The koala, owls, gliders, quolls and many other precious species are at threat of extinction in SEQ if we continue on the current path of urban sprawl development, destroying and fragmenting their habitat. We must ensure the rush to build new housing doesn’t come at the expense of remnant forest and wetland habitat. We are calling on the Queensland State Government to take urgent action to protect our iconic species to ensure their survival for future generations.
