Get connected to a happier, healthier lifestyle!
MeSsAgE FrOm ThE FeStIvAl D IrEcToR
Welcome to the 2014
Sustainable Living
Festival magazine.
Weve decided on this years theme
get connected because we all need
to feel connected in our lives. We are
connected to each other by whats
happening in our local neighbourhood
or school and through our family and
friends. We are connected to nature
through what we eat, what we do,
where we go and how we get there.
How we live also has a big impact
on our feeling of contentment. At
our recent Art of Happiness events
we found that a core ingredient
in happiness is a strong sense of
purpose. Living sustainably gives our
lives more purpose, connectedness
and well-being in so many ways. At
the festival you will gain knowledge
and get connected with the people,
organisations and businesses that can
support you on your journey towards
sustainability and well-being.
Inside youll find expert tips on
reducing your energy bills, green
building solutions, green finance, and
our feature on green weddings and
funerals.
Youll find information on our expert
talks, interactive workshops and
cooking demonstrations (p18), along
with previews of our Festival Films and
details of our all new Saturday night
Festival Party (pages 10 & 11).
Check out our interactive get
connected art installation and get tips
on recycling on page 16. There are
also great activities for kids to keep
them busy during the summer and
tips on how to have a sustainable silly
season (pages 17 & 20).
This year we want an ongoing
connection with festival goers and
are reflecting this in our entry price.
Instead of gold coin entry we will ofer
free entry for kids and Sustainable
Living Tasmania (SLT) members,
and a low $5 adult entry price which
includes free membership of SLT.
To celebrate we are giving away SLT
member prizes including a chance
to win a fully installed solar hot water
system and an electric bike...so look
forward to seeing you there!
MICHELE MATTHEWS, Editor
In so many ways, I believe
that connection is the
heart of sustainability.
To me, living sustainably means to
be connected to our environment,
one another and the systems which
govern our lives. Whether how a
plastic bag comes to be, the process
from seed to plate to soil, or how our
consumption patterns afect someone
on the other side of the planet.
From our food and industrial systems
to our governance systemsI think
the basis for living sustainably is to
try to understand and engage in
these systems and use our learnings
to make informed decisions about
everything from breakfast cereal and
building materials to where to pitch a
tent and town planning issues.
Sustainability is complex there arent
really any right or wrong answers,
rather it is a journey on which we are
all at diferent vantage points. I think
the key is to enjoy the view, learn as
much as you can about other places
to visit and ensure that you share your
maps and highlights with others along
the way.
So, on the 8 & 9 November, we will
bring the people, organisations,
businesses and ideas together to
help you plan the next steps on your
journey. Fun and sharing are, I believe,
two of the most important aspects
of sustainable communities. And we
have done our best to ensure that
both are served up generously at
Sustainable Living Festival 2014.
We are particularly excited about
connecting with MONA, Events
Tasmania, Cygnet Folk Festival,
Fractangular and independent
artists, breaking into the night with a
spectacular Festival Party on Saturday,
8th November. For the very first time
in our 16 year history, we will throw
open the festival gates from 6-9pm
celebrating sustainability with some of
Tassies finest performers, artists, food
and drink.
Sustainability is not about doing
without and sitting in a cold dark room
to save power. Its about doing things
better, savouring the good times and
joyously sharing with others.
I am so grateful for all of the amazing
people, organisations and businesses
who have made our festival possible.
An enormous thank you to all of
our sponsors, partners, supporters,
performers, presenters and dedicated
volunteers!
Look forward to seeing you at
Sustainable Living Festival 2014.

Success Through Partnership Sealasash and SLT
Our partnership with Sealasash is one of our great
sustainability success stories. Since their launch at the
festival 3 years ago Sealasash has gone from strength to
strength. As a business it epitomises sustainability.
Replacing old wooden windows with aluminium or pvc
double glazing is not the only option.
Sealasash take an old and often broken sash window,
and through their skill and experience rejuvenate it as an
eficient and beautiful window. This reduces draughts, noise
and dust and keeps the architectural features of the home.
SLT has also used their draft-proofing products for 4000
home retrofits and can attest to its quality and efectiveness.

Choosing the right
building material to
suit your site, budget
and aesthetics is very
important.
In Tasmania, 65% of homes are
brick so having more sustainable
alternatives available, which are made
locally, is a great option for those
wanting to build with bricks.
As a locally owned and operated
business for over 100 years in
Tasmania, K&D Warehouse supports
local communities. Subsequently,
they distribute a range of sustainable
building products, for use in new
homes, commercial developments,
and renovations.
K&D is the Southern agent for
Tasmanian Manufacturer Island Block
& Paving, who have designed and a
sustainable range of environmentally
friendly building products.
The Sustainable Products for the
Future range of blocks, bricks, pavers
and retaining wall products use over
40% recycled glass derived from
beer, wine and other waste container
glass. The manufacturing process
significantly reduces the 20,000
tonnes of waste glass currently added
to landfill in Tasmania each year.
This also reduces the use of natural
resources such as sand and metal
dust to create these unique products.
Island Block & Paving Managing
Director Mr Thurlow said We are
extremely excited about this range
and the opportunities it has opened
up Australia wide. With assistance
from K&D who distribute the
products, and Hazell Bros who supply
the recycled glass, it has been a real
team efort from three Tasmanian
businesses to get to where we are
today. The manufacturing process
also reduces cement usage by 10%,
limiting carbon dioxide emissions
whilst still achieving excellent product
strength.
The product is creating huge
interest from architects and builders
interstate trying to source unique
but sustainable building products
that meet their Green star design
requirements. We find that more and
more builders are after products that
not only look good and stand the test
of time, but are clean and green, good
to the environment and will help meet
building standards in a cost efective
way.
We think the Sustainable Products
for the Future range fits in perfectly
with Tasmanias clean green image
and really hope that the local building
industry and government authorities
within Tasmania appreciate the long
term benefits that these products
can bring to our state. Mr Thurlow
said Island Block Paving has a history
of design and innovation with many
of their patented wall systems being
manufactured around Australia for the
last 10 years.
Sustainable Products for the Future
have achieved Global Greentag
certification and are the only certified
masonry products manufactured
in Australia. The full range can be
purchased at K&D Bricks & Blocks, 10
Derwent Park Road Glenorchy, Ph 62
28 7828.

next project, go to kd.com.au and

We really hope that the

the long term benefits that

Not only are
the products

challenges, but they
are no more expensive

If you want to save
money on your utility
bills and want to reduce
your household carbon
emissions then an Apricus
Solar Hot Water System
could be the answer.
Water heating accounts for around
25% of the average household
energy bill in Tasmania and the latest
research suggests solar hot water can
provide Tasmanians between 50%
to 75% of hot water needs in winter
and 100% in summer all without
running costs or creating greenhouse
gas emissions. Any shortfall between
supply and demand can be made
up using electric, gas or even be
connected to your wood heater, so
householders need not worry about
running out of hot water during
overcast or rainy conditions.
Solar hot water systems use the suns
rays, or irradiation, to heat water
through a solar collector generally
located on the roof of the property.
Ideally the solar collector would face
as close to north as possible and
remain un-shaded throughout the
day (or you could even have your tank
installed inside to reduce heat loss).
The Apricus evacuated tube system
has a vacuum between two glass
layers and works similar to a thermos
flask allowing it toretain up to 95%
of the solar energy they capture!
This means that in cold climates, like
ours, heat is retained and not lost into
the atmosphere. The collectors are
also rated to handle frost down to
-15C without the use of glycol which
dramatically reduces maintenance of
the system.
Hot water systems are an essential
appliance in any home and ongoing
running costs must be a major
factor to consider in the decision
making process. Much like fuel
economy is considered when
purchasing a new car, Australian
families need to find the right
balance between upfront and
ongoing costs when purchasing a
new hot water system.
The graph below demonstrates the
annual running costs of a variety of
water heating options, with solar
coming out with the lowest price!

a fully installed Solar Hot Water
System from Apricus.

Prioritise your
household thermal
eficiency spending!
Most houses can be made more
energy eficient and comfortable,
but deciding which items or services
to invest in first is often a daunting
question. Here are some tips from our
friends at Home Eficiency Group to
help you.
1. Ceiling Insulation
As a rule of thumb, a top up of ceiling
insulation adds about 6 or 7 degrees
to your home. As 35% of heat is lost
through the ceiling, this is priority
number one. In summer, insulation
acts as a heat shield, so typically
keeps your home around 5

C cooler.
2. Underoor Insulation
Underfloor insulation is a particular
priority if you have exposed
floorboards or hard floor surfaces,
such as tiles. If you have good access,
then adding sub-floor insulation
usually adds about 3

C to the ambient
temperature of the home. Typical sub-
floor insulation is the equivalent of
having 11 carpets with underlay!
3. Heat Distribution,
Ecient Heaters or Heater
Consolidation
Heaters and hot water cylinders are
usually the main costs on your winter
utility bills. Bills are usually much
higher when a house has ineficient
heaters used over much of the day,
or lots of smaller heaters scattered
around the home. One option is to
consolidate heating to one main heat
source (for example a wood heater
for a larger house or a heat pump
for a standard house) and use an Air
Circulation System to distribute air
to the main rooms. This will reduce
your primary heating costs and allow
you to turn of or discard secondary
heaters around your home.

energy savings homeeficiencygroup.
com.au or call 1300 968 060.
Protecting your home
from draughts is one of
the easiest, cheapest
and most efective
things you can do.
Draughts account for 25% to 40% of
heat loss in the home particularly if
you live in an older home.
While there are short term solutions
like door snakes and stick on seals,
longer lasting solutions tailored
specifically for old and heritage
wooden windows and doors will give
you optimal comfort. This is where
Sealasash specialise.
Their draught sealing system is
retrofitted into existing wooden
windows, of all kinds and condition,
to make them work properly. The
system will stop draughts and rattling,
assist with noise reduction and even
improve movement when opening
and closing. Improvements may be so
good that you dont need to upgrade
glass or resort to double-glazing.
Many people think their windows
are in such bad condition that they
need replacing, however Sealasash
make repairs where needed and
havent yet encountered a window
that they couldnt fix. They attend to
cords or spirals, weights, pulleys and
woodwork while installing the draught
seals and can also replace glass with
more energy eficient solutions if
required.
Their system allows for renovations
that are sympathetic to architectural
heritage and encourage sustainable
use of existing material. Wooden
windows have great thermal
properties, far better than PVC or
aluminium, which help keep a house
warm in the winter and cool in the
summer.
We basically take out
the old windows and
completely recondition them.
Reconditioning windows in this
way is really popular in the UK,
and we love to see these older
homes cared for. We take real
pride in the work we do.

Ashgrove Cheese
Company is all
about the freshest
and creamiest milk
possible, bottling it to
drink, crafting curds
into cheese, separating
the cream for market
and churning farm
house butter.
We are a 100% Tasmanian family
owned and operated company, with
a team of dedicated locals that have
been producing award winning dairy
products for over 20 years.
Like many other Tasmanian cheese
makers and milk bottlers it is
important that we are connected
to our milk supply, but for us it goes
much deeper. We choose Ashgrove
Farm milk not only for its premium
milk but also for the quality of the
land, soil and grass. The milk from
Ashgrove Farms is delivered straight
from the dairy to the factory. It is very
important to us that the Ashgrove
Farm cows live well. These Friesian,
Jersey and Holstein girls have long
tails for life, an abundance of fresh
spring water and birth naturally.
They graze on a natural, nutrient rich
pasture diet, resulting in milk that is
pure in flavour, creamier and naturally
sweeter.
The connection from the Ashgrove
Farm Partnership to the Ashgrove
Cheese Company is family and trust.
We know and trust the Ashgrove
farm milk comes from a place that
proudly strives to improve milk quality,
animal care and sustainable farming
practices.
Ashgrove Farms have no bobby*
calves. All calves that are born onto
the Farms are hand reared and not
sold as bobby calves.
We believe that producing premium
quality bottled milk, cheese, cream
and butter is all about connecting the
process from grass to cow to you.
Next time you are in your local
shop and you are thinking about
milk, cheese, cream or butter, think
Ashgrove.
*Bobby calves are newborn calves
separated from their mothers and most
are destined to become veal. Learn more

Theres nothing better
than harvesting freshly
grown veggies from
your garden. It helps
us to connect to our
environment, to what
were eating and to our
local community.
Part of the wonder of growing is
experimenting. Why not plant two or
three pumpkins around the garden
to explore the influence of diferent
microclimates and conditions?
Pumpkins are very forgiving, if you
plant the seeds upside down, they will
still find their own way from beneath
the earth and sprout out in all their
splendour.
At Dodges Ferry Community Garden
our inspiration often comes from our
interactions with the local community.
People share what they are growing
at home, and their ever-changeable
handy tips on sustainable food
production. We are particularly
inspired by one of the leaders in this
field, Vandana Shiva. Vandana is
the mother of food sovereignty, she
continuously espouses peoples basic
right to grow diverse and nutritious
food whether in their backyards or in
villages and communities around the
globe.
So talk to your neighbour and see
what they are growing. Share some
seeds or trade a seedling variety.
Swap a piece of excess produce over
the fence and break down the barriers
that prevent growth yours and the
pumpkins!

Teros. For Active, Natural Living.
In a world of ever increasing
distractions and gadgets, more
people are discovering the simple joys
of growing, processing and cooking
their own food; of making things and
leading a more physically active life.
Whatever the reasons, many find
that connecting and engaging with
the world around us is an uplifting
and joyful experience and it reduces
buying and consuming. This includes
us two couples passionate about
helping others who want to live a
more active, natural lifestyle. After
organising bulk purchasing of
food, solar hot water and electricity
systems, we learned a lot about our
community and the demand for
simpler and more active lifestyles. To
help meet this demand, we are thrilled
to be opening a new shop at 117
Elizabeth St Hobart, called Teros.
Teros will provide inspiration,
products and services to help people
live happier, healthier and more
sustainable lifestyles. These include
beautiful gifts and home, garden and
travel products that are more natural,
ethical and hand-made. Teros believes
simple choices make a diference for
us and the planet.
Teros will help people build new skills
by running workshops and providing
kits for those wanting to make their
own food and products like cheeses,
ciders, chocolates, and soaps.

the waste and overconsumption that plague
Western nations, the film examines how
the people of Madagascar have embraced
a conservationist lifestyle of recycling,
repurposing and self-reliance in the midst
of a global economic crisis. Structured as a
Kabary, the Malagasy traditional oratorion,
this documentary uses music, theatre, folk
tradition and metaphor to create a unique
portrait of life in Madagascar.
Song from the Forest
As a young man, American Louis Sarno
heard a song on the radio and followed the
mysterious sounds all the way to the Central
African rainforest. He found their source with
the Bayaka Pygmies, a tribe of hunters and
gatherers and never left.
Today, twenty-five years later, Louis travels
with his son Samedi, from the African
rainforest to another jungle, one of concrete,
glass, and asphalt: New York City. Together,
they meet Louis family and old friends,
including his closest friend from college,
Jim Jarmusch. Carried by the contrasts
between rainforest and urban America, with
a fascinating soundtrack and peaceful, loving
imagery, Louis and Samedis stories are
interwoven to form a touching portrait of an
extraordinary man and his son. Songs From
the Forest is a modern epic set between
rainforest and skyscrapers.

Bringing it Home
A fathers search to find the healthiest building
materials leads him to the completion of the
nations first hemp house. Hemp with lime is
a non-toxic, energy eficient, mildew, fire and
pest resistant building material. The drawback
hemp remains of-limits to almost all U.S.
farmers. Industrial hemp is a non-psychoactive
plant, grown in 31 other countries that makes
1,000s of sustainable products and ofers
solutions for global warming, nutrition, poverty
and deforestation. Bringing It Home tells the
story of hemp: past, present and future and a
global industry that includes textiles, building
materials, food products, bio-plastics, auto
parts and more.

Virunga is a UNESCO-designated World
Heritage listed National Park in the Congo, with
the worlds last population of wild mountain
gorillas. With enough action, pathos, suspense,
venal villains, stalwart heroes and endangered
gorillas for a dozen fiction films, Orlando von
Einsiedels extraordinary documentary Virunga
lays out the complex mix of deadly forces
threatening the national park. This rousing,
must-see work, filmed amid flying bullets and
racist conspirators, provides a dramatic front-
row seat to a struggle whose moral integrity
proves no guarantee against the superior
firepower of greed and corruption.

Get Connected to Sustainable
Business
The idea of a sustainable business is
not new. In fact, in recent years, it has
become relatively mainstream. But
what does it actually mean to be a
sustainable business and how would
you go about reviewing your business
to ensure you are operating in an
increasingly sustainable way?
The narrow business application of
sustainability in the past has been
does my business make enough
money to endure? More recently
a broader definition of business
sustainability has emerged, one
that takes into account our impact
on the environment, our social and
cultural impact and even the impact
of our business on our own individual
sustainability, for example our health
and relationships.
Benets of Investing in
Sustainability
Providing a fresh perspective on
how your business operates;
Reducing energy and fuel costs
as well as reducing waste disposal
and trade waste costs;
A happier and healthier
workforce with less accidents and
emergencies as well as positive
social and cultural outcomes;
Tapping into a large number
of opportunities as the way we
do business shifts us towards
increasing levels of sustainability.
What You Can Do
The first step is to review the
transactions that your business
undertakes, both at a strategic
big picture level and a detailed
operational level. And from there see
how you could do things better and
more eficiently.
Opportunities for improvements
include:
How you raise finance
micro-financing, crowd-sourcing
and subscription models;
Environmental impact
closed loop production and
rematerialisation;
Social innovation
buy one/give one, co-operative
ownership, inclusive sourcing and
diferential pricing;
Diverse impact
product as a service and shared
resources.
We dont recommend doing it all at
once but we do suggest that you have
a good team advising you, including
an accountant who thinks sustainably.

6 Reasons Why Coal Will Struggle
Since peaking in January 2011, the
price of thermal coal has fallen 51%.
Price is driven by the simple dynamics
of supply and demand and supply
has continued to outpace demand.
Below, Australian Ethical Investment
highlights reasons for this imbalance
and the factors that shape coals
decline.
1. Production not falling fast
enough. Global production is not
coming ofline quickly. In Australia,
approximately 40% of exported
coal is unprofitable.
2. Japan diversifying its energy
mix. Whilst Japan has ramped
up consumption, this is only
transitional demand until it restarts
nuclear power plants and builds the
65 gigawatts of solar planned.
3. Electricity consumption falling in
developed countries. The weak
global economy has undoubtedly
reduced power consumption but
much of the fall is the result of
increased energy eficiency and
behavioural changes.
4. Coal friendless at home and
overseas. This is best seen in the
US they export almost three
times as much as a decade ago.
Tightening EPA legislation requires
existing power plants to upgrade
and higher standards for new
plants. These extra cost incursions
will essentially prevent the
construction of new US coal fired
plants. The EU has targeted a 40%
reduction in emissions, from 1990
levels, by 2030. This will naturally
force out the highest emitters or
prevent their growth, leaving coal
friendless in Europe too.
5. Indias new PM is pro-renewables.
Indias new Prime Minister Modi
is pro-solar and renewables. His
plan to bring electricity to 400
million people via solar is ambitious
without equal.
6. Is China turning away from coal?
China has announced that it will
ban coal-fired power from Beijing
by 2020.

Til death
Each year over
220,000 people in
Australia say I do.
Thats roughly the
population of greater
Hobart using up heaps
of resources from
venues, to invitations,
flowers, and travel...
for just one day. So, on
your special day make
a pledge to the planet
as well to each other,
by having an eco-
friendly wedding.
Band of Gold
Try hunting in one of Tasmanias
many antique shops for that
unique ring.
Venue and Travel
Where you have your wedding can
have a significant impact on your
carbon emissions.
Ensure you choose a venue which
is as close to the majority of guests
as possible.
Choose to have your reception and
photo locations nearby.
Arrange a bus to pick up and drop
of your guests.
Encourage your guests to ofset
their emissions as their wedding
present to you.
Clothes
Consider a pre-worn gown as your
something borrowed.
Check out vintage and retro shops.
Try bridal recycling shops online.
Employ a local dressmaker to make
your gown and wedding trousseau.
Eco-friendly materials include
peace silk, bamboo, organic cotton
and hemp.
Hire bridesmaids dresses and tuxes.
Flowers
Use in-season flowers and
sustainably produced native flowers
where possible. You could also
dry them afterwards to keep as a
memento.
Invitations
The most environmentally friendly
option is to email where possible.
Use unbleached, post-consumer
waste, recycled paper.
Make personal place cards and
menus out of recycled materials
that guests will want to keep as a
memento of your special day.
Confetti
Use biodegradable rice paper and
you wont have to worry about the
clean up!
Consider using bird seed instead of
confetti and give the birds a treat!
Catering
Choose local and organic. Use our
sustainable food tips on page 20
for ideas.
For more ideas go to:
naturalweddings.com.au.
Air travel is one of the
highest carbon emitters of
your wedding.

Excerpts taken from Dying to be Green
Thank you to Bianca Nogrady and G
Magazine.
Til death do us part
Are you looking for the
secret of everlasting
sustainability? One
way to reduce your
environmental impact
is to consider a green
funeral. For most of
us death is a dificult
topic to discuss, but
talking about your
commitment to the
environment from
cradle to grave may
be a good way to start.
Ashes to Ashes or
Six Feet Under?
Cremating the average sized man
pumps into the air just over 50 kg of
greenhouse gas. This might not seem
like a big amount, but multiply 50 kg
by the number of people cremated
around the world and things begin
to look a bit more sobering. And
this figure doesnt even account for
the amount of fuel used to raise the
temperature of the furnace needed
to consume human remains fully. Nor
does it take into account the carbon
dioxide released from the burned
casket.
Cremation is causing particular
environmental problems in India,
where Hindu tradition dictates the
body be consumed by fire on a
wooden pyre. With Indias enormous
and expanding population, this
practice leads to the consumption
of an estimated 50 million trees and
produces half a million tonnes of ash
and eight million tonnes of CO
2

each year.
Being buried in the ground can also
come with a hefty environmental
price tag. Along with contributing to
urban sprawl, it consumes more fossil
fuels than cremation due to it being a
labour-intensive operation. According
to one recent study, over the course
of a typical cemetery burial, carbon
dioxide emissions actually exceed
those involved in a cremation.
Green burial means that the body,
which is not embalmed, is buried in
an eco-friendly casket or shroud in a
manner that allows it to return to the
earth as quickly as possible.
Your typical cofin also contains
environmentally harmful chemicals
that along with embalming, can
leach into the soil and ground water.
Around the world, environmentally
friendly manufacturers are ofering
caskets made from materials such as
cardboard, paper, woven bamboo,
willow, plantation pine and hessian
shrouds.
100% biodegradable
post-consumer
recycled cardboard
cons are available
in Tasmania.
But while the funeral
industry is beginning to
ofer more green choices,
its dificult for a family to
arrange a green funeral
under pressure - so its a
good idea to make your
wishes known well in
advance!

DiD YoU KnOw?
You can now recycle
empty paint cans and
empty aerosol cans.
Help create the
largest mobile phone
installation in Tassie
from old mobiles
at the Sustainable
Living Festival and do
something good for
the environment.
MobileMuster, with the help of local
students and volunteers, will arrange
5,000 old and unused mobile phones
into a feature artwork on mobile
phone recycling. This represents
just 1% of the number of old mobiles
Tasmanians have in storage lying
idle and going to waste. Designed by
internationally renowned eco-artist
Chris Jordan this artwork has been
described as impressive and thought-
provoking.
MobileMuster estimates that there
are over half a million old, broken
or unused mobile phones stored
in homes, ofices and garages
throughout Tasmania ready for
recycling.
Why not get involved by bringing
down your old mobiles and
accessories to the festival to
help create this massive artwork.
Alternatively you can recycle them
along with their chargers and
accessories at the Sustainable Living
Tasmania (SLT) ofices, 1st Floor, 71
Murray St, Hobart. For every mobile
recycled at the Festival or at SLT
between October to December
2014, MobileMuster will give $5 to
Sustainable Living Tasmania. Terms
and conditions apply.
All phones used in the artwork
will be recycled.
MobileMuster is the only not-for-
profit government accredited
mobile phone recycling program. Its
the industrys way of ensuring old
mobiles dont end up in landfill but
instead, are recycled in a safe, secure
and ethical way.

Get Connected to Recycling
Often people get confused with
recycling, especially plastics so if
youve ever wondered what you can
recycle here is an up to the minute
guide to everything you can place in
your recycling bin.so stick it on your
fridge as a reminder!
Do recycle :
Rigid plastic (AND DONT
WORRY ABOUT THE
NUMBER ON IT!) If it is rigid
and not soft like a plastic
bag you can recycle it...
and this includes things
like biscuit trays. Plastic
bottles should have their
top removed (and you can
recycle that too!)
Lids from take away cofee
cups (you cannot recycle
the actual cup if its made
from waxed cardboard)
Glass all glass bottles and
broken glass such as broken
windows or glassware are
recycled in Tasmania
Paper and cardboard
including window envelopes
(please dont put a string
around your paper and
cardboard!) No waxed
cardboard though please.
DoNT recycle :
Any plastic bags (even
when it says it can be
recycled as we cant do
it here in Tassie) a plastic
bag full of recyclables
means that the whole bag
full is sent to landfill.
Check out National recycling

Its always a challenge
to know what to do
with the kids during
the holidays. Now
that its getting a little
warmer weve conjured
up some cool ideas
for keeping the kids
happy. Try some of
these sustainable
activities that will
keep your children
and grandchildren
engaged. These ideas
will minimise your
carbon footprint and
wont break the bank.
Get Connected to Nature
Why not try camping? Start with
somewhere nearby. While youre
there why not try a nature ramble and
discover new plants. Give each plant
or animal you see a special sound and
make that sound every time you see
it. Blow a raspberry for fungi, squeak
for wildflowers and give the birds
a special hoot! While youre there
check out the nightlife and see if you
can spot nocturnal animals like owls,
possums, pademelons or wallabies.
Kids also love stargazing. All you need
is a spotlight and a clear night! Start
a scrapbook and fill it with all your
favourite things from nature. If youre
near a beach discover the diferent
types of seaweeds and shells.
Get Connected to Reinventions:
Check out your local Council
Recycling shops, there could be great
low-cost stuf to get crafty with not
far away.
Make puppets and put on a puppet
show for your friends. Build a
treehouse or make a cubby out of
sticks and leaves. Recycle cardboard
and string to make a kingdom of
Castles, Bridges and Moats. And dont
forget to design your own flag!
My son suggested making paper
aeroplanes (out of recycled
paper of course!) Check out
funpaperairplanes.com for free
downloadable designs.
After their flying days are over they
can be made into mobiles for the
bedroom.
Get Connected with Friends:
1. Become experts: each select
a country, Indigenous culture,
animal or plant and find out all
there is to know about it and then
do a show-and-tell with friends.
2. Cut out your favourite animal
pics to stick on old playing cards
and make a game of animal
dominos.
3. Get dressed-up with clothes
from op shops and put on a play.
4. Make gluten-free play-dough.
Go to abt.cm/1mJgxXv for the
recipe.
5. Bake mufins for someone
special (fairtrade chocolate ones
please for this parent!)
6. Start a Green Team at your
school and get together with
friends and brainstorm projects.
7. Enjoy a local holiday and
houseswap with a friend or join
aussiehouseswap.com.au. Youll
not only be enjoying Tasmanias
natural treasures, youll also be
supporting the local economy.
So theres a few ideas to get you
started and theres no doubt your
friends will have more to share with
you.

We all tend to over-
indulge during the
holidays, often
followed by a feeling
of regret. So this year
why not savour the
enjoyment of sharing
food with friends
and family without
over-doing it. With a
few simple changes
to your festive family
gathering you can
cut your carbon
footprint and inspire
others to follow your
example.
Write a shopping list and only
buy what you need.
Provide a vegetarian
option. 150g serve of meat
(one small steak) can take
over 200 litres of water to
produce and creates 5kg of
carbon pollution. Is your fish
sustainable? Check out
amcs.org.au
If youre hosting a picnic or
hosting an event outside of your
home choose somewhere local
that people can walk or get
public transport to, itll also make
you a real mate by not allowing
your guests to mix driving with
alcohol.
Aim to make the event waste
wise. Take reuseable products
and discourage the use of
plastic plates and cups.
If you have family members or
guests arriving from interstate,
encourage them to ofset their
travel (or ofset it yourself as a
gift to them!)
Making your own card
decorations will make your
holiday greetings extra special.
Decorations can be made
from recycled materials such
as newspapers, chains, corks,
card and odds and ends of craft
pieces from op shops. And its
also a great activity the kids will
enjoy.
There is already so much stuf
in the world (and in most of our
homes), consider giving gifts of
experiences, rather than more
stuf. A massage, a weekend
bush retreat, a ticket to the
theatre or maybe even trapeze
lessons.

Old sewing patterns
make great wrapping

degradable materials like
string and wool as an
alternative to sellotape.

The UK Sustainable Development
Commission identified three main
areas where consumers can have the
greatest impact:
1. Reduce consumption of
meat and dairy products.
Some meats, like kangaroo, chicken
and pork, in that order, use less
energy and emit significantly less
greenhouse gases than beef, lamb
and goat production.
2. Reduce consumption of foods
of low nutritional value
(eg: sweet snacks, fatty foods, most
bought drinks)
3. Reduce food waste.
On average every man, woman and
child in Australia wastes around
400g of food every day. Generally
it is either food that could be used
another day or it is perfectly good
food discarded because of the date
on the packet.
Organic farms tend to be carbon-sinks
or carbon-neutral, though with lower
yields, whereas conventional farms are
carbon emitters. So while I love local
produce, organically grown from my
veggie patch where possible, Australian
freighted organic produce is also good,
and a lot better than fresh produce
flown or shipped from overseas.
For dried and processed foods it is
trickier. Sea freight is much more
eficient than road freight. So, for
example, the carbon emissions in
bringing a carton of dried apricots by
sea from Turkey to Melbourne are not
much diferent from bringing a similar
box from Mildura by truck. In this case
farm and factory productivity and
techniques are more important than
food miles.
Eumarrah is a uniquely Tasmanian
business specialising in organic
and natural groceries. It has the
broadest selection of self-serve bulk
foods in Australia. Eumarrah actively
works on being environmentally and
socially responsible. So if you support
sustainable living, shop at Eumarrah.
