At the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation (CSIRO), we solve the greatest challenges through innovative science and technology.
Our natural environment is under significant pressure: climate change, plastic pollution, and biodiversity loss, are among the major threats that our planet is currently facing. Scientists study environmental phenomena to understand these changes and develop models of future impact. It is therefore imperative to enable scientists to do their research, educate the general public, and reach out to key decision makers.
