It’s been a bumper snow season in Victoria, with thousands of ski lovers enjoying some of the best conditions in years. So why has our largest alpine resort decided to sign up to TAKE2?

Think you’ve got the answer to making Melbourne more resilient to the effects of extreme heat and heatwaves? That’s the challenge being thrown down at an upcoming hackathon focused on climate change. TAKE2 is a proud supporter of the event.

The 2017 Premier’s Sustainability Awards are fast approaching, and the finalists were recently revealed. This year’s short list reads like a 'who’s who' of TAKE2, with many of our members and founding partners in the running.

That’s according to the newly-released, in-depth findings from Sustainability Victoria, which look at perceptions of climate change within the Victorian community. You might remember that we shared some high-level findings earlier this year. Now the full results are available.

Glen Eira City Council has joined 34 other Victorian councils in making the TAKE2 pledge, demonstrating its commitment to taking action on climate change. Collectively, the 35 local governments represent over 60% of the Victorian population.

Like all ResourceSmart schools, Castlemaine North Primary School is working to make sustainability part of everything they do. Helping them to realise this goal is TAKE2 Founding Partner The Hub Foundation, through its community solar project MASH.

With more communities than ever going green, a new series of webinars is offering practical advice to anyone interested in clean energy on a local level.

Meeting the challenges of climate change calls for innovative solutions. Your business or organisation can lead the way with support from the Victorian Government’s new $3.8 million grants program.
