GreenCollar is a dedicated natural resource management and environmental markets consultancy providing research and project management services to the agricultural, forestry and environment sectors.
Led by an experienced management and consulting team of agricultural and environmental professionals, GreenCollar has been providing advisory services in the Australian and International market place since 2008.
GreenCollar has been at the forefront of the development of new markets such as biodiversity and carbon through initiatives such as the development of the world’s first forest carbon accounting methodology to generate carbon credits by converting commercially logged forests into conservation areas. GreenCollar is currently working on several new methodologies for assessment of carbon stocks in rangeland and forest systems.
These methodologies and carbon accounting tools allow farmers, landholders and land managers to monetise greenhouse gas emission reductions, abatement and sequestration achieved through the implementation of a wide range of land use change scenarios.

Projects from the showcase
Tablelands Regional Integrated Agriculture Carbon Project
CSP: CO2 Australia Limited
Location: Queensland
The project is on land that was predominantly used for agricultural purposes for at five years prior to the project’s commencement. Tree species in the project are native to the area, and established in a permanent planting.
WeAct Forest Aggregation project 1
CSP: We Act
Location: Victoria
This project sequesters carbon by converting an existing short rotation plantation forest to a long rotation plantation forest for commercial harvesting of wood products.
Bonnie Doone Soil Carbon Project
CSP: Carbon Link
Location: Queensland
North Burnett graziers Carly and Grant Burnham commenced a soil carbon project in 2016 in partnership with CarbonLink, covering over 5,275 hectares of their property.
Despite seasonal challenges of dry weather and fluctuating cattle prices, extensive testing and auditing of Bonnie Doone demonstrated the Burnhams’ adoption of new land management practices resulted in the equivalent of 126,222 tonnes of greenhouse gas emission being sequestered into their soils over the five-year reporting period.
In late 2023, the couple were awarded 94,666 Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) by the national Clean Energy Regulator – the largest allocation for an individual soil carbon farming project in Australia to date.
