Our Life
The Territory has a largely intact natural environment that we all enjoy and benefit from.
Our natural landscapes, rivers and seas are beautiful, and provide the distinctive Territory feel and essence to our lives.
Tourists are drawn from all over the world to experience the wonders of our nature and for locals, the Territory's pristine environment provides our fun and the space to do our own thing.
These natural landscapes also provide the essential habitat for our plants and animals and give us important services such as clean water that support many industries.
Our life depends on an environment that continues to provide these essential services while allowing for continuing prosperity and opportunity for Territorians.
This is sustainable development and the Territory Government is acting to ensure we can have development and better conserve our natural environment.
