Environmental Sustainability Review
Consultation has concluded
We're updating our city's plans to make Wollongong greener and protect our natural environment.
Our Environmental Sustainability Policy and Strategy outlines how we'll work to reduce our environmental impact and create a sustainable future.
We are reviewing these documents to make sure they reflect current issues and approaches to sustainability within the community, business and different levels of government.
You can help by telling us what environmental issues are important to you by posting your images and comments in our ideas tool.

2040 public movie screening in Wollingong sponsored by businesses alongside a sustainable stalls and food event.
Making sustainability positive and fun and creative is so important. In spring hold a public screening of 2040 than can be sponsored by businesses and promoted and supported by the many local community organisations. I'm sure Damon Gamey the director would mind providing a special rate to air it in Wollongong for the wider community. Pair it with a sustainable event involving local stores, produce, eateries who use containers and utensils that are not plastic etc and you have a bigger pull to get many in there and watch this fantastic and inspiring positive look at what is possible. Council should have an internal viewing for all employees to get them on board and supporting it! 😀

cycleways all the way up and down crown st. and other roads and streets. Much safer than competing with cars and pedestrians.
If we are aiming to reduce the city´s emissions, this must be a MUST in our city.
