Description	The objective of LivingGreener.gov.au is to deliver a single, user-friendly government website to link households to all Commonwealth, state, territory and local government sustainability programmes. LivingGreener enables ready access and therefore greater uptake of environmental programmes for sustainability (energy, water, waste and personal transport) by Australian householders. The portal is designed to be the central hub for Australians to find information, inspiration and action on their journey towards living greener. Wherever people start their own journey to live greener the online portal is designed to give them the tools they require and encourage them to go further. LivingGreener now includes a number of Life Events guides and Real Stories from users.
