Green Web is an exciting landscape-scale project which:
Protecting and investing in the Green Web across the Shire is essential for the long-term survival of the many beautiful native plant and animal species which share our home in the Southern Highlands - especially endangered species such as koalas.
The Green Web will also help to ensure that our wildlife corridors connect with our neighbouring local government areas and to the Great Eastern Ranges - the 3600 km long corridor stretching from western Victoria to Far North Queensland. Protecting and maintaining these connections are critical in helping native plants and animals cope with climate change through allowing movement across the landscape and providing refuges from the extremes of climate change.
The Green Web project will help deliver the biodiversity conservation outcomes of Council's Environment and Climate Change Strategy.
