Sustainability Plan, Think Global - Act Local

 

Imagine a more sustainable Lane Cove where every household is composting its rubbish, planting natives in their gardens, saying no to using plastic bags and excess packaging and choosing eco-friendly products and housing design.

This is the kind of vision underpinning Council's
Sustainability Action Plan for Lane Cove, entitled “Think Global – Act Local”.

The 10-year draft plan outlines a number of possible initiatives including a Council nursery and demonstration community garden to encourage residents to plant natives and water efficient gardens and a demonstration Ecohouse, where visitors can see first hand how to build a water, energy and resource efficient home.

These initiatives will put the Lane Cove community well on its way to joining a global effort towards more sustainable local communities.
