Sustainability

Located 600km from the nearest large landmass, Lord Howe is one of the “cleanest” places on earth, with no air or sea pollution or litter.

While the rest of the world ponders over the recent news that a million species globally are facing extinction from human activities, Lord Howe Island is celebrating the success of 40 years protecting its unique species, by removing the last introduced feral mammal pests.

In 1982, The Lord Howe Island Group was listed as a UNESCO World Heritage property, in recognition of the global significance of the island’s beauty and biodiversity.
