Geelong and Melbourne are bursting at the seams. Our towns and cities are looking for ways to accommodate our growing communities.

The City of Greater Geelong wants to build new housing estates. The plans include clearing important habitat for endangered plants and animals. Some habitats will be conserved, but most bulldozed.

Farmlands that were once grasslands are set to become Geelong’s newest suburbs. Amazingly, endangered creatures like Striped Legless Lizards and Golden Sun Moths still live in these changing landscapes.

The challenge is finding room for everyone without destroying the remnant grasslands and their critters.

We have until 5pm Monday 25 September 2023 to share our concerns.


Include your own subject line and message for more impact.
