Why protect a Square?

Finally... a meaningful way to fight climate change

Buying a Square is a simple and affordable way to take direct climate action. Each hectare of rainforest you protect can store up to 1,700 tons of CO2e, and absorb a further 15 tonnes each year, while producing 11 million litres of freshwater!

Australian rainforest protected in your name

You’ll receive proof of your ownership, connecting you to a real, living piece of Australia’s rainforest. Each Square you buy is protected for at least 10 years. No development, no clearing, no compromise.

Protect endangered species and support biodiversity

From cassowaries to rare plants, your Square becomes a safe haven for endangered species. Situated on verified conservation land, your Square is cared for by C4 in consultation with the Djiru people, the Traditional Owners of the land.

Make your mark. Protect what matters.

Where is the land?

Djarawong: Mission Beach, QLD Australia

Queensland forest is disappearing fast—an area the size of 1200 football fields is destroyed every day! By protecting cassowary habitat in the Wet Tropics, you’re making a tangible difference in preserving one of the planet’s most biodiverse ecosystems. Every Square you claim is a step toward a thriving, nature-positive future.

Protect rainforest the smart way - own it

SquareBySquare is on a mission to make it affordable and accessible for anyone to buy conservation land and protect it against clearing.

When you claim your Square, you’re doing more than donating—you’re taking real ownership of rainforest conservation. With your purchase, you protect critical habitats and help save species like the endangered cassowary, which relies on these ecosystems to survive.

Cassowary Conservation

The Wet Tropics is one of the last refuges for the endangered Southern Cassowary. With fewer than 4,000 cassowaries left in the wild, protecting their habitat is critical. Every Square you save supports a brighter future for these keystone species and the forest they call home.
