Green Adelaide recently announced the recipients of Round Four of the Cooler Greener Wilder grants for environmental projects that deliver urban greening and water/biodiversity sensitive urban design.

Grantee projects include development of a verge greening demonstration site in West Torrens with the aim of inspiring residents to green their own verges; greening on the Grange Rail Corridor and West Lakes Boulevard, and the City of Burnside undertaking a sustainable redevelopment of Penfold Park. The grants were delivered as part of the Urban Greening Strategy for Metropolitan Adelaide funded from South Australian landscape and water levies.

“Green Adelaide has an ambitious vision for a cooler, greener, wilder and more climate resilient metropolitan Adelaide, and our local government partners play a lead role in moving toward this vision.”
– Professor Chris Daniels, Presiding Member of Green Adelaide
