Run an annual competition seeking Australia's net zero energy homes. Promote the prize winner(s) and ask them for best tips on energy efficiency, including the cost of solar technology and reduction of energy bills.
A free service that visits your home, reviews your energy use and lifestyle and gives you the 10 best ways you can change your behaviour to reduce your energy use.
Link local childcare centres with local retirement villages. Set up a roster of volunteers from our older population to spend regular time with preschoolers, increasing one-on-one time for preschoolers. Benefits for all participants.
Instead of feed in tariffs for excess electricity generated from residential solar panels, create a "bank" account where all generated electricity is credited and all used electricity debited.
My idea is to have an allocated number of spaces for disadvantaged and aboriginal kids in each childcare centre.
Got an Idea to shape Australia's tomorrow?
