Assisting the Noosa Shire community to achieve net zero greenhouse gas emissions

Noosa Shire has long been a leader in demonstrating the strong links between environmental values and economic performance.

Achieving net zero greenhouse gas emissions is an important part of our future. Many Noosa residents and businesses are already seeing the benefits of lower emissions living. Reducing and switching our energy use to renewable energy is not only good for the environment, it offers huge cost savings for everyone.

Zero Emissions Noosa currently has three main areas of focus: residential, business and transport emissions.
