East Gippsland Environmental Sustainability Strategy and Action Plan

Council acknowledges the importance of reducing the human impact on the environment and has developed an Environmental Sustainability Strategy.

The strategy is a management tool targeting action towards environmental sustainability in the areas of Council control and influence within East Gippsland.

Over the next ten years, we are committed to:

‍

>> Managing and mitigating the impact of climate change.

‍

‍

‍

>> Achieving sustainable resource management.

‍

‍

‍

>> Facilitating living and working within the capacity of the local environment.

‍

‍

The four-year Environmental Sustainability Action Plan outlines how Council intends to achieve the goals and targets of the Environmental Sustainability Strategy.

The action plan details how Council will either lead or work in partnership with various stakeholders and our community to achieve outcomes.

Progress in delivering the actions will be provided to the community through social media updates, the Environmental Sustainability Annual Report and through our Environment Connect Newsletter.
