Climate Week NYC 2026 was last month, and our CEO James Schultz, Chair Brendon Foran and Head of International Projects Rob O'Sullivan were among our representatives who attended. They advocated to the world about the power of environmental projects and markets to harness the outcomes achieved by critical land management work undertaken by landholders and attract private funding to improve and help conserve our ecosystems and support efforts to combat human-induced climate change.

Last week, we had the privilege of being welcomed onto Yinggarda Country at Wooramel River Retreat for a really special few days together.

The Wooramel Gathering brought together around 40 people over the few days - Elders, Directors, Working Group members, Rangers, Artists and Business Owners representing Yinggarda Aboriginal Corporation , Malgana Aboriginal Corporation and Gawler Ranges Aboriginal Corporation, along with GreenCollar Board Chair Brendan Foran and staff, and our hosts at Wooramel Station.

We spent time on Country, saw the Wooramel carbon project in action, heard about the work each group is doing and had some great conversations about priorities and aspirations for Country and community.

The idea for the gathering came through our joint working groups and a shared interest in creating more opportunities for our partners to come together. Our carbon projects gave us the connection, and the Wooramel Gathering gave us the space for cultural exchange, learning from each other and progressing ideas and opportunities together.

We’re really grateful to everyone who was part of it, and to Wooramel River Retreat for looking after us so well.

Most importantly, we heard how much our partners valued getting to know each other better, building connections and learning from each other. That was really what the gathering was all about.

Avoided deforestation is one of the ways landholders in western NSW are diversifying farm income while conserving native forest on their own land.

Across a 15-year crediting period, GreenCollar's avoided deforestation projects are expected to generate approximately more than 27 million ACCUs — including additional carbon sequestration outcomes picked up in the resurveys done at the end of each project's reporting period.

Our Chief Scientist, Dr Jenny Sinclair, has been involved in this work since some of the first projects were set up over a decade ago. In this short video, she talks through what avoided deforestation is, and what the recent resurvey results are showing.

Every time it rained on Mt Wickham Station, sediment would wash from eroding gullies, through the river system, all the way to the Great Barrier Reef.
Last year, GreenCollar in collaboration with Verterra, worked with the landholders to start the first gully rehabilitation project registered under Queensland's Reef Credit Scheme. Through reshaping headwalls, installing check dams, and restoring ground cover, the project is estimated to prevent 760 tonnes of fine sediment from reaching the Great Barrier Reef each year - nearly 19,000 tonnes over the project's 25-year lifetime.
This is what land management for water quality looks like in practice. Watch the Mt Wickham Station gully restoration story below

Gully erosion is one of the largest sources of sediment pollution e...

It looks like a fantastic night was had by all at the Thangool State School P&C 'Disco Divas' fundraiser!
A huge congratulations to the Biloela and Thangool community for coming together to raise $33,300 for the students of Thangool State School - what a success and testament to the hard work of the P&C team. We are proud to support local events that make a real difference & glad to play a part in supporting the Thangool State School.

Earlier this month our teams spent more time in boots than behind desks, heading out to visit two Land Restoration Fund projects and walk through the country to see how the Avoided Clearing projects were tracking on the ground.

Each property showed off something different:
On Nioka, we spent time in the Brigalow scrub looking at how the melon holes act as natural water storage, catching runoff and recharging the aquifers that keep the country resilient.
At Stonehaven, we looked at ironbark and softwood scrub country that’s thriving. Since starting the Avoided Clearing project, the landholder has seen more productive, diverse vegetation coming through, showing the real-world value of keeping this country standing. In both cases, we walked the paddocks together.

Being there in person meant we could get into the 'nitty-gritty' project details and handle any questions right where the work happens. By the end of the visits, everyone had a clearer shared understanding of the next steps. It was a good reminder that when it comes to managing country, these conversations are always better had face-to-face.

Australia is sitting on one of the biggest new income opportunities for regional communities and nature repair in its history.

Our Chair Brendan Foran says GreenCollar is part of a new national advocacy group being launched to grow Australia's nature economy.

Growing Australia’s Nature Economy (GANE) has been established to strengthen public confidence in Australia’s carbon and biodiversity markets, support landholders and First Nations groups participating in them, and ensure these systems continue to deliver measurable results on farms, on Country and across regional Australia.

Brendan and representatives from the NRM, finance, Agtech & environmental market sectors will be hosting the 'Australia's Environmental Markets' panel at Wilmot Field Day | 4-5 March 2026
