LUTO2 model for sustainable land management
The Climateworks Centre, in collaboration with Deakin University and CSIRO, is advancing sustainable land management in Australia through the development of the LUTO 2 spatial model. This model guides land use changes to achieve net zero emissions, balancing emissions reduction, biodiversity conservation, and agricultural productivity.
Highlighted at COP28, the initiative promotes a 'nature positive' approach to reverse biodiversity decline and restore ecosystems by 2030, emphasising the integration of nature into decision-making for climate and biodiversity targets.
