In Homebrush Bay, Sydney, Australia you can see a remarkable floating forest. The remains of an abandoned transport ship, a 1911 steam collier, is slowly being overgrown by a forest. Humankind has helped. From 2008 to 2010 there was an effort to remove chemicals from Homebush.
These incredible photographs come from Bruce Hood, Andy Brill and Stephane & Eva. The set was first made public by This is Colossal.

Really tempted by a holiday in Australia? Sites like eBookers.com and Expedia are often helpful starting points. One of my favourite travel alternatives is a site called Responsible Travel, all about sustainable holidays, where you can book trips like a Great Ocean Walk, a Head of Bight whale tour or even a Tasmania wildlife holiday.
