During the summer of 2019-20, about 7 billion trees were impacted by the bushfires.
Your support is needed, now more than ever before, to amplify our efforts in plant research and conservation to help guard our endangered native plant species against extinction.
The devastating impacts of climate change, habitat loss and the extinction crisis mean we need to ensure our unique plant species are securely and urgently conserved, now more than ever.
The Royal Botanic Garden Sydney is Australia’s oldest scientific institution and has been leading the discovery, documentation and conservation of plant life in the country for over 200 years. By establishing the new Australian Institute of Botanical Science, we will help ensure the survival of plants and all life that depends on them.
Fight for our flora and make an impact with a donation to support our vital scientific work.
