Our Environment Strategy 2020-2030 details our environmental sustainability goals and how we will act to protect our region's environment.

Across the City in our gardens, parks and reserves, waterways, foreshore areas and roadsides we are lucky to share our environment with a diversity of native animals. 

The indigenous plants of the Greater Geelong region information sheets will help you to select locally suitable plants for your property in the Greater Geelong region and help to improve biodiversity in our region.

We manage a wide variety of nature reserves, covering over 1,400 hectares, that provide habitat for a diversity of native plants, animals and other wildlife.  

A nature volunteer group is a group of people who volunteer together to observe, study and conserve wildlife and nature in their local area. 

Take yourself for a wander through our precious wetlands and waterways and learn more about the many important species that call them home.  

The surf beaches of Point Lonsdale, Ocean Grove, Barwon Heads and Breamlea are the home of the endangered Hooded Plover.
