Australians dispose of about 21 million tonnes of household waste per year.

And in an age when avoiding rising energy consumption (and costs) is integral to reducing emissions-related impacts on climate change, many Australians are becoming more interested in exploring how to conserve their energy use. What are the best ways we can avoid creating excess waste and at the same time become more efficient with our power consumption?
