We will hold our first group meeting in the next few weeks, and everybody is invited.

Joining in costs nothing, so join the fun and contribute to save the planet.

How Does it Work?

Members of the community meet to exchange the skills and knowledge that will make their home/street/area the most sustainable environment and community they can.

The idea stems from the reality that all want to create a safer and healthier living environment for themselves and their children.

The best way to do that is by bringing people together to pool knowledge and resources.

Sustainability Street puts the idea of Thinking Global, Acting Local into practice.

Being a Sustainability Street involves getting together with other community members, attending workshops and bringing enthusiasm to the process of making our lives and our area more sustainable.

Three key workshops are planned for the first phase of the program.

At the first introductory session, where everyone gets together in the street, we explain the process to you all and learn about each other's interests and skills.

The second two workshops will look at household energy and water use and how we can save on bills and reduce greenhouse emissions.

As time goes by, we can run workshops on other sustainable living topics.

They might include:

Composting and worm farming;

Attracting wildlife to gardens;

Non-toxic cleaning;

Growing natives, vegetables, herbs;

Improving a local park or open space.

As the program develops, the group may decide to hold extra get-togethers, street parties or working bees.

At a minimum, the program is a basic training course to help people to live more sustainably at home and in the neighbourhood.

Anything above and beyond is limited only by the imagination and energy of the participants.
