Sustainable House Day – September 13th

With summer approaching and ‘brown outs’ being tipped as a regular occurance in the more densely populated areas of our glorious sunburnt country – it’s encouraging to see so many people wanting to know how to make their homes more energy efficient. We’ve made giant leaps with conserving water and switching to compact flourescent light bulbs. Now, it’s time to go that one step further and really think about resource (water & energy) conservation when building and renovating our homes.

160 amazing homes are being opened to the public to inspire and motivate us all to think sustainability and energy efficiency. Just go along for a mooch around – I’m going to.
