Nature and Community
Our dedicated group of experienced environmental scientists and community engagement specialists utilise two-way science to document the natural capital and ecosystem services that require conservation or enhancement, with the aim to help land managers and communities get the most value from their natural assets.
Our work aligns with existing and emerging requirements under State, Federal and International legislation and Environment, Social and Governance (ESG) requirements.
Nature-Based Solutions
Biologic works with communities to develop and implement nature-based solutions to enhance ecological resilience and sustainability. By restoring natural habitats, improving land management, and promoting biodiversity, we provide innovative and cost-effective strategies that address climate change and environmental degradation. Our approach not only mitigates risks but also delivers significant economic and social benefits to communities.

Working with Biologic
We understand our clients, whether they be industry, government, not-for-profit or communities, face unique challenges and require a range of services and expertise to effectively address these challenges. Our wide-ranging experience allows us to work across multiple stakeholder groups, ensuring that solutions are practical, high quality, respectful and measurable.
We work with clients to establish unique projects, identify and measure natural assets and ecosystem services, generate solutions, and uphold national and global standards. The team is supported by over 100 specialised ecological experts at Biologic Environmental Survey and Biologic Seed, ranging from ecologists, seed scientists, and molecular geneticists to earth scientists.
Benefits for communities
The process of restoring and maintaining these biodiverse areas provides a host of local employment opportunities.
We look to partner with local and Indigenous businesses and groups to help with services including seed and plant procurement, feral and fire management, and infrastructure development and maintenance, as well as providing opportunities for bush tucker industries and cultural practices.
“The value of biodiversity is that it makes our ecosystems more resilient, which is a prerequisite for stable societies; its wanton destruction is akin to setting fire to our lifeboat.”

Gidgegannup Biodiverse Carbon Project
Located 45 minutes from the Perth CBD, our Gidgegannup Biodiverse Carbon Project is the start of our journey towards restoration best practice.
Taking transformative action to address biodiversity loss
Committed to putting our words into action, we created the Gidgegannup Biodiverse Carbon Project. Nestled into the Australia Wildlife Conservancy Paruna Conservation Estate, the project consists of cleared paddock and remnant vegetation. This biologically diverse 139 acre area will ultimately produce 700 Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) per hectare.
We plan to leverage the project to produce high integrity nature-based credits with significant co-benefits for biodiversity and communities. Along with doubling as a training ground for staff, and experimentation into restoration methods, we will encourage federally listed species like the Black Cockatoo and Chuditch (Western Quoll) into the area through habitat creation and feral control.
The Dasgupta Review clearly states that the cost of taking urgent and transformative action to address biodiversity loss now would be significantly less than if action is delayed. The Gidgegannup Biodiverse Carbon Project is Biologic’s first step in taking this vital action.
