Australia Museum says 20-year-old collection will help understand and conserve threatened animals, which are sensitive to climate change.

So it was very serendipitous that we were able to get in just in time,” he said. Many of these species are endangered. Erich Wittstock, a laboratory team leader at Southern Cross University, said the donation of the collection to the Australian Museum meant the museum’s taxonomists could properly preserve specimens for the future. But just days before they were due to arrive, Nearly two months later, on 26 April, it was deemed safe for the team to gather the collection and transfer it to the museum in Sydney. Years of discussions between the university and the Australian Museum had culminated in a plan for museum staff to collect the samples in Lismore on 1 March last year.

The Battery Park City Authority, as part of a major climate resilience plan, will tear down Wagner Park and elevate it by 10 feet to address flood risk.

"This community is going to be fine one way or the other," Pawlowski said of Battery Park City. He said the high level of controversy over the Wagner Park demolition points to how climate adaptation and wealth inequality are strongly connected. Britni Erez, a Battery Park City resident and member of the neighborhood association, thinks the BPCA's resilience plan shouldn't have been approved. "Yes, their plan will protect from sea level rise and storm surge, but in the process, they're contributing to the climate problem by reducing greenspace and emitting more greenhouse gases." [notified elected officials ](https://bpca.ny.gov//wp-content/uploads/2022/11/Alternative-Concept-Response-November-3-2022.pdf)that it had rejected elements of the neighborhood association's alternative plan, citing key engineering, logistical and design considerations. The final plan to tear down and rebuild Wagner Park did not come easily. Wagner Park is located in a primarily residential neighborhood of upscale high-rise apartment buildings in Battery Park City. The raised Wagner Park will include a buried flood wall along with elevated berms and pop-up walls — infrastructure that's been identified as critical in an era of climate change. Residents rallied again in August after learning the BPCA's project would reduce the amount of lawn space from the existing Wagner Park. "It's going to be a lot of these little local battles over time." The change will protect the neighborhood from flooding, storm surge and rising sea levels. Built nearly 30 years ago, the park has served as an escape for residents of the fast-paced, densely packed neighborhood in Lower Manhattan.
