Bass Coast Shire Council has shown its commitment to take action on climate change as a founding member of the Victorian Government’s voluntary TAKE2 pledge program.

Greenfleet is proud to be a founding partner of TAKE2 - Australia’s first state government-led voluntary climate change pledging initiative, and one of the most comprehensive climate change pledging programs in the world.
