Contact CouncilTowards Local Sustainability
Imagine a sustainable Yarra where homes are water and energy efficient, and powered by clean renewable energy, where every household and business is composting and recycling, where residents are saying no to using plastic bags and excess packaging, and everyone can grow or has access to locally grown food.
Imagine a carbon neutral municipality, with healthy ecosystems, environmentally friendly buildings, infrastructure, transport and streetscapes.
Imagine a resilient and self reliant community able to adapt to the challenges of climate change and working together on collective and sustainable solutions.
