Opportunity to Showcase Your Sustainability Success
November 5, 2008:
Event registration open for Zero Footprint Week at www.zerofootprintweek.org.au
Businesses and community groups are invited to showcase their sustainability initiatives by registering an event during Zero Footprint Week (November 23rd - 29th).
An initiative of the One at a Time Foundation, Zero Footprint Week is an umbrella awareness week that encourages Australians to take simple steps to measure and reduce their impact on the environment, save money, and help to halt climate change.
Events registered on the week’s website www.zerofootprintweek.org.au will be included in the Zero Footprint Week national media information kit and all official schedules, and registered events will receive Zero Footprint Week badging.
With the federal government’s Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme due to take effect in 2010, Zero Footprint Week is an opportunity for individuals, businesses and communities to reduce their ecological footprint before the scheme’s fees are introduced.
Founder and Director of One At a Time Foundation, Amanda Little said, “Zero Footprint Week is a great forum for businesses and community groups to showcase their green initiatives, and aims to provide simple, practical information on how we can reduce our ecological footprint, one easy step at a time.”
Each day of the week focuses on a different area:
Sunday, November 23: Zero Footprint Week Launch
Monday, November 24: Food
Tuesday, November 25: Home
Wednesday, November 26: Office
Thursday, November 27: Energy
Friday November 28: Transport
Saturday, November 29: Sustainable Gardening
