Terrain, an independent not-for-profit company limited by government guarantee, was established in 2003 as a response to Commonwealth and Queensland government natural resource management policy to more strategically manage regional investment in natural resource management activities. Terrain builds on the successes of decades of community-based environmental work. Overseen by a nine-member board of Directors the organization manages a core budge of $7.4M, as well as significant additional investments amounting to $9M over three years. Terrain represents a support base of 115 organisations through which several thousand North Queensland landholders are part of the natural resource management movement.

Terrain is widely regarded as being among the leading natural resource management bodies in Australia, getting people working together toward a shared vision for the future that is based on enhancing biodiversity, managing water and land resources sustainably, and incorporating indigenous land and cultural resources. Degree Celsius will allow the land managers of Far North Queensland to prioritise the sequestering of carbon as part of their natural resource management activities.
