Toowoomba for Climate Action is playing our part to keep global average temperatures in a safe, liveable range, so that all humans, other species, and living systems can flourish.
Did you know that Toowoomba Regional Council was the first in Queensland to capture landfill methane for energy production? Council has both reduced the emissions it is responsible for by 80% and now saves ratepayers over $1 million/year in energy savings! Council’s most demanding energy user, the Wetalla Water Reclamation Facility, is now 90-100% supplied with free renewable power. Dozens of other Councils have been inspired by Toowoomba Regional Council to do similar projects on their own landfills. |
