Mackay urban greening news
Growing cooler, greener and connected neighbourhoods
Greener neighbourhoods are cooler in summer, are more attractive places to walk and cycle, they deliver a daily dose of nature closest to where we live, work and play, and offer many other benefits.
We received positive community feedback from our recent Mackay urban greening survey that showed overwhelming support for planting more trees in our region. We also heard that people would like to be kept up to date on our greening activities and participate in planting events. This web page has been created to do just that.
