Influencing decision makers and community
Lighter Footprints aims to influence Australian local, state and national decision makers to take the action necessary to halt global warming as a matter of urgency.
Community Action
The government wants to throw our taxpayer funds at large gas companies for massive new gas fields when there are safer, cleaner alternatives right now. Find out more about our campaign to move past gas here.
Making the switch
Electric appliances are cleaner, safer and will save you money. Visit our information page with links to buyers guides, reviews and an interactive pdf.
Community Batteries
Community Batteries are a promising middle scale storage solution of the near future. Victorian trials are underway. Please visit our information page, with links to blogs, videos and other information. Quarterly updates available.
Coming Events
Lighter Footprints and Friends End of Year Celebrations
It’s time to kick back and celebrate a year of working together for climate action. Our celebration this year will be even bigger and better than ever as we have invited our 2025 Kooyong campaign allies to join us.
Otherwise we will be celebrating in traditional Lighter Footprints style - BYO everything including something for the BBQ and a salad or dessert to share. We will have tables under the trees outside the Guide Hall if the weather is fine and inside if not.
