The Central Coast

Central Coast Eco Green

Across the Central Coast, practical sustainability can start with everyday infrastructure: generating electricity at home, choosing efficient hot-water systems, collecting rainwater, repairing transport and sorting difficult household materials.

The services below offer different ways for households, businesses, landholders and volunteers to make informed resource and conservation choices around the region.
