Sunshine Coast Environment Council Information

In a time of rampant development in the late 1970’s, dedicated conservation groups and individuals from all over the Sunshine Coast came together to become a united voice for the environment. In 1980, the Sunshine Coast Environment Council (SCEC) was born. SCEC continues to be a strong and respected voice as the peak environmental advocacy group for the region – having worked with groups on over 80 campaigns to promote and protect the natural values of Queensland’s magnificent Sunshine Coast. We advocate for better environmental policy, supporting local groups on campaigns to promote and protect our natural landscape and marine environment, and encourage positive action on climate change through education and community engagement.
