Australia is facing unsustainable urban sprawl, leading to widespread habitat loss. Combined with the impacts of climate change, this loss is affecting native bird populations.

Australia is facing unsustainable urban sprawl, leading to widespread habitat loss. Combined with the impacts of climate change, this loss is affecting native bird populations.


Modelling by CSIRO suggests this issue will grow more acute over the next century, with annual survival rates falling as low as 11%

Habitat supply is rapidly reducing

Heatwave frequency is increasing

Heat waves and habitat loss are killing native birds.

Holo provides a cool, sheltered habitat for native birds. The device captures AC runoff in the top pool, offering fresh water to local fauna. Excess water overflows into the body, cooling the internal cavity and mimicking the natural insulation of a thick tree trunk. preliminary tests have shown cooling of up to 12 deg C.
