Coastcare is community volunteers caring for their coast. Coastcare volunteers identify local environmental problems and work together to achieve practical solutions. Coastcare and landcare groups tackle problems like dune erosion, loss of native plants and animals, storm water pollution, weeds and control of human access to sensitive areas. Coastcare also runs a great project called Life on the Edge, which encourages everyone to get involved with 'Life on the Edge' and clock-up 100km
of any non-motorised activity throughout the summer. Dave's final 100km of the Murray River expedition is being 'donated' to this year's Life On the Edge campaign.
The Great Big Paddle Murray River Expedition is delighted to be working with Landcare and Coastcare to spread the message about their work and promote participation and positive action. To find out more about volunteering or starting a landcare or coastcare group visit the sites below:
