Lifestyle
As the world population grows, so does the consumption of natural resources. Our energy intensive lifestyles put pressure on our planet, degrading the environment for future generations.
There are many sustainable changes you can make in your lifestyle that will help reduce the negative impact on our environment, whether it is a small change like altering your diet, to a bigger commitment like installing a solar power system.

Environment Victoria is proud to launch our new range of translated sustainable living brochures.
Environment Victoria - Translations
Created as part of the GreenTown program, we've developed 35 brochures in 11 different languages, from Amharic to Zomi.
In these you will find ways to save energy and money, to keep warm in winter, to grow a healthy sustainable garden and more. We chose the topics that our GreenTown participants from Melbourne's culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) communities want to learn about, in the languages spoken by many of Victoria's new and emerging as well as more established CALD communities, and we've profiled green-living GreenTown participants as role models. English language versions are also available.
