Creating an emissions-free future…

Energy efficiency in our homes, schools and businesses is the first vital ingredient in ZEB’s Emissions Reduction program.
We can save up to 40% of emissions by taking simple steps to reduce energy use – and keep those power bills down.
The NSW Office of Environment and Heritage (OEH) has put together practical information to help you cut your electricity use.
There’s also a program for low income households to help replace inefficient appliances.

Mountain ….. in Byron!!

Screening one night only on Saturday 9 February at 7.30 pm at The Byron Theatre, Mountain is a multi-award winning documentary celebrating the beauty and majesty of the world’s mountains. Bookings at The Byron Theatre www.byroncentre.com.au

It’s an amazing film, a visual odyssey among the world’s great mountains, with music performed (and also composed by) Richard Tognetti and the ACO. It’s also a nail-biting action film, a meditation, a work of art, a chance to think about our ourselves and our place in the universe …

It’s for a very good cause: to raise funds for Zero Emissions Byron’s work to reduce Byron Shire’s carbon emissions to zero by 2025.

ZEB is also holding a Mountains and Music Raffle with wonderful prizes: The grand prize is two tickets to the ACO’s 2019 season in Brisbane generously donated by the ACO. Other prizes are:

Bird light and cushion from Jules Hunt Design,

Sundive snorkelling trip for two to Julian Rocks,

5 course meal at Harvest Newrybar for two people,

9ct roses ring from Louise Shaw Jewellery,

Two tickets to ACO’s Serenades for Strings at NORPA,

A meal for two at Barrio.
