Living Sustainably

Issue 1 - Dec 2005

Australian Conservation Foundation GreenHome ProjectThe Australian Conservation Foundation's (ACF) GreenHome Project comprises a series of local programs to promote sustainable living in NSW households and motivate behavioural change.

Programs are undertaken in partnership with local councils, clubs, and other networks to bring the local community together. They are tailored to the local area, with local speakers, sponsors and workshops.

Participants are encouraged to take action at home to reduce their environmental impact, addressing areas such as water and energy savings, gardens and food, waste reduction and recycling, purchasing, household chemicals, and transport.

The program is supported by an actions-based guidebook, workshops and an interactive web program.

GreenHome workshops have been held at Parramatta, with more events and workshops planned at other locations.

Take the Greenhome Challenge – Sign-up to take action at home and join people from all around Australia to see how much energy, water and waste you can save.
