We are an independent charity that brings together individuals, groups and organisations to plant trees and take practical action for a carbon positive future. We have a volunteer board, and a team based in Perth, Western Australia and Queensland.
Why We Care
Like you, we want to mitigate the impacts of climate change in order to provide a liveable future for our children and grandchildren. Thriving communities and functioning, biodiverse ecosystems are essential for our health and wellbeing. We have a vision of a carbon positive Australia, where we have not only reduced our current emissions but where our climate is stable, and we are all thriving.
What We Do
– Restore our unique, biodiverse natural habitat through planting trees and the generation of reforestation carbon offsets;
– Encourage, engage and inform the community about climate change, the environment and how we can all be part of the solution;
– Empower everyone to take active steps to calculate and reduce their carbon footprint; and
– Collaborate with other organisations.
What Your Donations Fund
Your donations plant trees and sequester carbon through projects that increase canopy cover and biodiversity and have positive climate, health, and wellbeing outcomes. Because climate and biodiversity are our focus, we plant:
– On degraded lands to increase biodiversity and to improve soil health;
– In urban areas to improve the wellbeing of those living in disinvested communities, reduce heat-related illnesses, and boost overall climate resilience;
– And in our remote regions, collaborating with Indigenous-led and regional projects to fund plantings that provide amenity and connection to Country, increase wellbeing, and foster community health.
We take a nature-led approach and are passionate about providing ecologically sensitive planting that protects our agricultural land and environment. We only plant biodiverse native species and specialise in working with landholders to create innovative solutions for carbon planting. We are renowned for our research and monitoring of ecological outcomes. From our roots as Carbon Neutral Charitable Fund, we rebranded as Carbon Positive Australia in 2020. We will continue to use donor funds to provide ecologically sensitive environmental restoration and planting of degraded land.
