Abstract/Contents:Profiles environmental protection efforts at Glenelg Golf Club in Australia. States that the club put forth a Remnant Indigenous Vegetation Action Plan with several objectives, including "to conserve the idigenous plants and animals on the course site"; "to ensure that seed sources are protected and available for future revegetation projects on the course"; and "to regenerate, restore and replant areas of indigenous vegetation on the property." Also lists several strategies the course will implement to manage the idigenous vegetation, including to "determine species, location and timing for revegetation planting programs"; "develop a strategy for weed eradication, including selected removal of planted native (but not local) and exotic plants."; and "develop over time, linked wildlife corridors." Concludes that "the benefits of the remnant vegetation conservation and revegetation program are yet to be fully realised [realized] but the club has taken the first positive steps along this path and are to be commended for their commitment to date."
