Recycling Tips and Clean Up Australia Day

Clean Up Australia Day- Sunday 7th March

For 20 years hundreds of thousands of Australians have got together every year to protect the health of our environment. Thankyou to everyone who participated over at the Lake with Monash Residential Services. If you didn't make it there are other simply things you can do to help the environment:

Say NO to plastic bags. Some other stores have taken the initiative to sell only bio-degradable bags. Many stores now days also have environmentally friendly tote bags which can be bought once and used time and time again.

• Recycling. This is an essential part of our society and by making sure to recycle your plastic PET bottles, milk cartons, paper/cardboard and glass, to be re-manufactured into things we can use again.
• Use less water. Try to limit shower time to 4 minutes; turn off the tap when brushing your teeth and so on
• Use less electricity. Be sure to switch off lights, computers, TVs and so on before heading out of your room to save electricity and reduce carbon emissions.

Peace out
