Sustainability Begins at Home

Posted on Sunday, July 6, 2008 at 09:02PM by Registered CommenterHappyEarth in | Comments5 Comments

Sustainable-Illawarra-Flyer.jpgOur local Councils have just launched 'Sustainability Begins at Home,' with heaps of fun activities and workshops set to happen over the next 2 years, an 'online challenge,' a really exciting 'Super Challenge' and a funky, informative website.

Households joining the 'Super Challenge' will set their own action plan to become more sustainble - and will receive $200 of eco helpful freebies (e.g. compost bins, fruit trees), support along the way, and entry into a draw for a solar hot water system!

Only 200 households are able to take part and applications close August 1st - so check out http://www.sustainableillawarra.com.au/ and go to the 'Super Challenge' page to get your Expression of Interest in!
