Make a pact to nurture your relationship with nature

Make a pact to nurture your relationship with nature

Where’s your favourite place to relax outside? Is it a neighbourhood park, the local beach, or your own backyard? Do you enjoy catching the early morning sunshine, or prefer to picnic under the trees? Perhaps you like winding down after a busy day by walking under the stars?

Whatever your preference, join us for a fabulous campaign that’s all about investing a little bit more time in your physical and mental wellbeing by committing to at least two hours a week—or even just 20 minutes a day—to getting out into nature, wherever you are, and absorbing its sights, sounds, scents and sensations.

It’s time again for the #NaturePact campaign, which aims to encourage as many people as possible to spend more time connecting with the outdoor world during September.  For the second year running, Koala Eco is delighted to be the principal partner and supporter of this worthwhile initiative, run by the Australian environment and health charity, the People and Parks Foundation.

The aims of #NaturePact align perfectly with our mission to encourage people to bring more nature into their everyday lives. Running over four weeks, each with a nature-based theme, the campaign is all about highlighting creative and inspiring ways to celebrate the joy, health and wellbeing benefits of connecting with nature. And if that’s not enough incentive, your social media posts according to each weekly #NaturePact theme could win you a special prize from the Koala Eco range.

So make a pact. Nurture your relationship with nature.
