Carbon Down has a range of partners who have signed on to share our philosophy on carbon reduction.
They share the information and knowledge they gain through their organisations in order to help us measure Victoria's total carbon footprint and work out the steps we need to take to reduce it.
We support projects that educate and spread awareness about carbon reduction through the small and medium-sized business community. Our partners collect and share their carbon-reduction data, behaviour and attitudes towards carbon reduction and in turn, we help them understand the issues facing their customers and suppliers; contribute funding to their projects and connect them with other leading minds in business, government and industry;
