The Carbon Down program has now come to a close.

Carbon Down operated from 1 July 2008 until 30 June 2011 with the aim of reducing the carbon footprint of small and medium business in Victoria. Over the course of the program, Carbon Down provided business and government with knowledge on behaviour change, carbon reduction and the SME sector. Three years of insights and knowledge gained from the program will help inform the future of the state's climate change related policy and activity.

The team involved in developing the program have accumulated a great deal of expertise in this field, which makes them uniquely positioned to share the successes and lessons learnt about how to drive behaviour change, resource efficiency and carbon emissions reduction activities among SMEs for the mutual benefit of both business and the environment.

Carbon Down has made significant inroads to reducing the carbon emissions of the Victorian small business community. We are extremely proud of our achievements and would like to thank all partners, vendors, stakeholders and all of the small businesses who have taken action themselves and helped us achieve our ultimate goal.
