Install solar hot water
Sunlight converts cold water into hot water. No gasses are emitted and no one gets hurt. Life is rarely this simple!
Promote sustainable living
Help spread the word about those actions we can all be taking to reduce our impact on the environment.
Install efficient appliances and fixtures
When investing in large household appliances and fixtures, use the government’s Energy and Water Ratings (Stars) to guide you.
Harvest and use your rainwater
Install a rainwater tank to collect and store the rain hitting your roof and use it to water your garden, wash your clothes or fill your toilet.
Generate your own electricity
The sun hitting your roof can power your home. It’s just a question of gadgets.
