Online guide on how Gippslanders can live sustainably from Wellington Shire Council
The update of Council's website includes an in-depth look at all things related to sustainability and the environment.
It's part of a commitment by Council in its Sustainability Strategy 2020-24 to keep the community engaged and informed about sustainable living.
The vision of the Wellington Shire Council is to give healthy environment for the thriving communities in the heart of Gippsland, preparing them to adapt to climate change and become sustainable
Preparing and adapting to climate change
One of the new features of the Environment section on the website is 'Responding to Climate Change' which details what climate change means for the Gippsland region and Wellington Shire. It also gives practical tips on how Wellington residents can prepare for and adapt to climate change.
Updates on plans for green waste disposal, including the proposed green bin collection service, are available in the newly-expanded 'Waste Management' section. With hard waste collection underway over the coming weeks across the shire, residents will be able to stay informed about dates, guidelines and size limits by visiting the website.
Becoming sustainable
There is also plenty of information on the council's website 'Environment', including details on gardening and food production, and tips on becoming a sustainable business. Residents are invited to learn more about sustainability and the environment by visiting the council's website about 'Guide to Living Sustainably'.
