CSIRO is continuing research into topical issues. Many research projects are underway that may change the way we go about our everyday lives.

In the 1990s, concerns over global warming and environmental issues were at an all-time high. CSIRO helped provide some solutions and alternatives. Other key areas of research included manufacturing and biotechnology.

CSIRO's achievements were diverse in the 1980s. Locally, rabbits were back in the spotlight and new solutions were required to slow their growing poulations. CSIRO found a biological control for the weed Salvinia which was causing flow problems in water bodies.
