Biodiversity report and video break new ground

Thuringowa Council has produced a video of its award winning Biodiversity Study. The study, which has been incorporated into the city’s new Planning Scheme, lists the biodiversity of Thuringowa, from urban areas to costal habitats and the rainforest environment of the Paluma Range.

It is believed to be the most extensive study of its kind undertaken by a council in Queensland. Endangered species and sensitive habitats are recorded in a listing ranging from saltwater crocodiles and butterflies to vegetation and birdlife.

The new video is available for use in schools and in public consultation. The study reinforces Thuringowa City Council’s commitment to achieving sustainable environmental outcomes.
