The Tassie South branch of Renew is working in conjunction with the local ASC chapter to present a range of sustainability topics.
Check out the Passive Design for Cool Temperate Climates information sheets.
If you’re a local Renew member then consider joining us and show your enthusiasm for sustainable living!
Please note: Due to the current staff restructure at Renew the position of Branch Coordinator is being discontinued. Our Renew branches have been instructed not to plan events from mid-July until the end of August 2020. We hope that after that time systems will be in place to allow branch events to resume.
