Join us in calling on Jacinta Allan’s Labor government to urgently reverse their plans to scrap Sustainability Victoria as part of their cuts to the public service.
Sustainability Victoria runs important programs that help schools, businesses and Victorian households reduce waste, energy. It has been a core part of helping Victoria become more sustainable - and now it will be axed as part of Labor’s public service cuts. It provides guidance and grants to help businesses remove hazardous materials such as asbestos and toxic batteries, has helped over 1600 schools become more sustainable, and accelerated commercialisation of recycled materials, including using recycled glass to make roads... and so much more.
Labor has already made massive cuts to the environment sector this year including DEECA, Parks Victoria, Solar Victoria, Victorian Fisheries Authority, Office of the Conservation Regulator.
In a climate crisis we cannot allow any more environment services be cut, we cannot allow Victorian workers to lose their jobs.
