Conserving biodiversity in NSW

How can we conserve biodiversity?

Conserving the biodiversity of NSW is a major challenge. It can't just be done by setting aside land in national parks and reserves; it needs the people of New South Wales to be involved in community conservation across the landscape.

The NSW Government's Biodiversity Strategy sets out a plan of action to achieve this. The strategy was launched by the Minister for the Environment in 1999. As a 'whole of government' strategy, it commits all government agencies to working towards conserving biodiversity in New South Wales.
