Imagine a world of overheated neighbourhoods, without birds, leaves, insects or wildlife.

It's crucial to establish wildlife breeding trails throughout suburbia. These trails not only provide essential habitats for animals but also allow for necessary migration patterns. By implementing these breeding trails, we can guarantee the preservation of wildlife and the rejuvenation of our communities with their presence.

Cooling Suburbia

Keeping cool during Australia's scorching summers is becoming increasingly crucial. Especially true for those living in suburban areas, heat can easily get trapped within the tightly packed buildings and streets. Cooling suburbia isn't just about comfort, though. Excessive air conditioning puts a strain on energy grids.

Wildlife Habitat

Suburban living doesn't typically conjure up images of wild animals roaming freely, but in Australia, it's a reality. The country boasts incredible wildlife, with species found nowhere else in the world. However, with suburbia rapidly expanding, their habitat is quickly shrinking. This is where green corridors come into play.

Nature's Bounty

Edible verges in suburbia provide a source of food for wildlife that may otherwise be struggling due to habitat loss. It can inspire individuals to grow their own edible gardens. By incorporating edible verges into suburban landscapes, we can create a more vibrant and ecologically diverse community.

Reusing Water at Home

Greywater, the lightly used water from showers, sinks, and laundry, offers an eco-friendly way to conserve water, save money, and support the environment. By reusing greywater for tasks like garden irrigation, households can reduce fresh water consumption and enrich soil health with its natural nutrients. This practice also eases strain on local water supplies and wastewater systems. To start, identify sources of greywater in your home and install a basic or advanced greywater system to redirect this resource safely. Select drought-tolerant plants for irrigation, and maintain the system with proper filtration and eco-friendly products.

Car Burnouts & their Environmental Impact

Have you ever seen a car screech to a stop and then peel out, leaving behind a cloud of smoke and burnt rubber? Yes, we're talking about burnouts! While they may look cool in movies and TV shows, burnouts have a negative impact on our environment. The black smoke produced by burning rubber is harmful to the air we breathe in and can cause respiratory problems. And let's not forget the impact that the chemicals in tires have on the soil and ground water levels. It's important to think twice before performing a burnout and consider the environmental impact. Let's keep our streets and environment clean and healthy!
