Fullarbor Project

“Fullarbor Desert Greening Lanes” is a virtual project for forestation with a view to contribute to climate stabilization

“Fullarbor Desert Greening Lanes” is a virtual project for forestation of arid and semi-arid areas with a view to contribute significantly to climate stabilization, and, in the course of time, to organize and facilitate interested specialists and companies to cooperate in establishing Fullarbor Desert Greening Lanes traversing the deserts of Nullarbor Plain and of South and Western Australia. Forestation happens already at a limited scale at several disconnected places in Australia and throughout the world through traditional methods or through technologically innovative methods but it is not yet planned on a sufficiently large scale to contribute significantly to climate stabilization.

The crucial importance of forests in stabilizing the climate has recently again been underlined by scientists:
