Welcoming the State of the Environment Report 2024

Tasmanian State of the Environment Report released - 17 September

Enviro-dynamics welcomes the release of the 2024 State of the Environment Report for Tasmania, which was tabled in Parliament in September 2024 and is now available online.

The State of the Environment Report plays a critical role in benchmarking the status of Tasmania’s natural assets and tracking, over time, any changes to the health and extent of these assets.

Normally scheduled to be released every four years, the last report was released back in 2009 and we acknowledge the Tasmanian Planning Commission for taking on this complex task, made more difficult due to the 14 year gap since the last report was released.

The Enviro-dynamics team contributed to a number of the indicators. It was a good project to be involved with and was important work, done in collaboration with passionate scientists and professionals, all working towards a shared outcome.

We knew there would be some challenges with the project, largely related to the limited budget and short timeframes to do what would normally be careful, deeply researched work undertaken over time.

With the release of the 2024 report Tasmania now has a baseline for regular state of the environment updates.
