Cities for Climate Protection

Cities for Climate ProtectionTM (CCPTM) Australia is an innovative program which helps local governments and their communities to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

CCPTM is a campaign of the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI), with over 370 (at June 2002) local governments from around the world participating.

On joining the CCPTM program, councils commit to achieving five milestones by passing a council resolution. ICLEI supports councils to achieve these milestones and works with them to develop a strategic agenda to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.

In Australia, the Cities for Climate ProtectionTM program is delivered by ICLEI in collaboration with the Australian Greenhouse Office. By June 2000, 92 councils covering over 40% of Australia's population had already joined the campaign.

National Kilowatt Count

The National Kilowatt Count is a fun way to calculate your everyday energy use and make simple changes to reduce the amount of energy you use at home and at school. It was developed by the Australian Greenhouse Office and CSIRO; and you can get more information at: www.kilowattcount.gov.au

Anyone can get involved and participation is simple. Not only will you be able to find out ways to save money on energy bills at school and at home, but you'll also be able to calculate how much greenhouse gas you're not producing any more.
