00:00The three initiatives of Seabirds to Seascapes are looking to protect
00:03the marine ecosystems within Sydney Harbour and also along the New South Wales coastline.
00:08So we've got Project Restore, which is run by Sydney Institute of Marine Science,
00:11which is looking at restoring seascapes all the way from the shore out to where the kelp is.
00:17We're also then doing the great big little penguin cat that looks at little penguins,
00:22both in the harbour and along the New South Wales coastline.
00:25And also the great seal reveal, it's very freshly named,
00:30where we're looking at the numbers of Australian and New Zealand fur seals,
00:33both in the harbour and along the New South Wales coast as well.
00:36A lot of people don't realise how lucky we are to have this big blue backyard
00:40right at our doorstep, so it's important to not only preserve these beautiful environments,
00:46but for future generations and for us all to enjoy into the future.
