Across Australia, thousands of people are already working to develop new technologies and harness cleaner energy sources. These include solar, gas, wind, and hydro, along with new energy sources like geothermal and wave energy. People are also working to turn waste into energy and to retrofit commercial buildings to make them more energy efficient.

The campaign also provides information about how the Government’s plan, including the carbon price package, will help to cut carbon pollution and create a prosperous and sustainable future for Australia.

The campaign also includes a series of radio commercials such as this one.
