About us:
Rainforest Reserves Australia, based in FNQ, has been active during the last 3 years campaigning against poorly sited renewables in QLD to defend the critical habitat of our Great Dividing Range. We stood alongside the community to oppose the proposed Chalumbin wind farm FNQ, and were gratified when Minister Plibersek advised she would reject the project in April 2024. We are now legally challenging the Federal Government approval of the Upper Burdekin wind farm in North Qld.
