Abstract: Australia is one of the most species-rich nations on the planet. It is also one of the most degraded with highest per capita numbers of threatened species of any place in the world. Australia also leads the world in per-capita resource use. There are serious issues regarding the long-term sustainability of the nation's natural resources - including the conservation of its remarkable biological diversity in the coming 20-100 years. This talk examines many of these critical issues and outlines a vision of some of the key new approaches and visions that are required to make the major transitions needed to true long-term sustainability.

Location details: The entrance to Gungahlin Homestead is from Bellenden Street  (off Barton Highway, approx 500m north of Gungahlin Drive overpass). The visitor car park is to the right of entrance near front of Homestead (Reception).
