Maroondah Journal: Switched on

The Maroondah Journal has reported on council’s lightbulb replacement initiative, where Home and Community Care (HACC) residents who are eighty years old and older, will be able to take part of a free program to replace incandescent lightbulbs with energy efficient fluorescent bulbs.

Cr Alex Makin said the initiative would enable residents to take action on climate change. “Not only will this make a difference by reducing the amount of greenhouse emissions, but it will have the added benefit of reducing the resident’s electricity bill. Eligible residents will be able to save money and also save the environment.”

My thanks to Enjoying Planned Retirement and to EPR member Iris Salmon, for assisting in publicising this worthwhile initiative.
