Ideas for Recovery

South Australia faces an unprecedented marine environmental crisis following a devastating algal bloom that has decimated marine life, threatened coastal ecosystems and impacted species communities dependent on healthy waters. This crisis demands bold, transformative action that goes beyond incremental responses.

These Ideas for Recovery present a comprehensive, evidence-based framework that will use the bloom as a catalyst for both change and enduring environmental transformation. Through nine integrated investment areas, this vision addresses both immediate remediation needs and the systemic changes required to build lasting resilience into South Australia's coastline.
