More than 20 environment groups are meeting with the Queensland government to discuss issues ranging from mining impacts to dingoes on Fraser Island.
Environment Minister Andrew Powell began a two-day conference with 24 environmental associations on Tuesday.
"It's about setting an agenda for the future not just for the three-year-term but for the long-haul," Mr Powell told reporters.
"I make no bones that I am there to represent the environment around the cabinet table."
National park acquisitions, Fraser Island's dingoes, coal seam gas impacts, the Great Barrier Reef's health and protecting wild rivers in far north Queensland were among the many issues raised on Tuesday
