Diversity of Planning - Environment


Fitzroy Gardens

Windfarms and Landscape Values

Environmental planning addresses climate change, planning for rural areas, protection of our coastlines and rivers, management of our lakes and waterways, conservation of parks and gardens, waste reduction, energy efficiency and sustainability.

Environmental planning also covers forest management and other natural resource protection. Given the breadth of knowledge required in this area, graduates may choose to specialise. There are jobs in local government, consultancy and State Government for environmental planners.
