Our Vision

Background
At a time when the climate change debate was firing up, leaders from within our community joined forces and pledged to establish the Hunter as Australia’s most energy and water efficient region.

Launched in April 2007, the Together Today initiative is all about showing people how to use energy and water more efficiently in their homes, at work and at school. Energy and water are precious resources and by becoming smarter in how we use them we can help the environment and save money at the same time.

Our Vision and Mission
To establish the Hunter as Australia’s most energy and water efficient region by providing a complete package of information, education, communication and action programs focussed on energy and water efficiency for the Hunter Region.

Our Goals
Together Today will engage the community via:
• Education, through all tiers of learning
• Media campaigns highlighting the positive actions taken by:
- the energy industry, to produce cleaner energy
- business and families to be energy and water efficient
- researchers within our community
• Assistance with the implementation of energy efficient strategies
• Development of community energy and water efficient champions.
Together Today will stimulate a market for energy and water efficient products by:
• Creating a community demand for products and services
• Creating support for businesses that are committed to energy and water efficiency
• Delivering media campaigns that enable member organisations to leverage off the Together Today brand.
