Landline episode

Dive deep into the heart of Australia's south-west, nestled within the sacred Wudjari Country, through ABC Landline's latest episode featuring Carbon Neutral.   Witness the transformative journey of the Esperance Wudjari people a decade after their native title rights were recognised. Despite this milestone, the path to economic and social prosperity remains fraught with challenges.   Discover how the Esperance Tjaltjraak Native Title Aboriginal Corporation, in collaboration with Carbon Neutral and the Odonata Foundation, is taking bold steps towards reclaiming their land and future.

Through the acquisition of a 4,000-hectare property, together we embark on the ambitious Rejuvenation Tree initiative. This project is not just about environmental restoration; it's a lifeline, promising housing and healthcare for the local First Nations community, powered by the generation of carbon credits.   Hear from Peter Bednall, CEO of Esperance Tjaltjraak, and our CEO, Dr. Phil Ireland, as they shed light on the significance of this project against the backdrop of global climate change efforts. This feature is a testament to the power of community, sustainability, and the crucial role of Indigenous stewardship in conservation and caring for Country.   

Join us in supporting and learning more about the Rejuvenation Tree Project and the resilience of the Esperance Wudjari people and their inspiring journey towards economic independence and environmental guardianship.
