Welcome back to your third Transition Streets workshop! Today’s session is on using less energy.

First up! (5 minutes)
Spend 5 minutes or less having a brief chat about how you’ve all managed with your actions from the Waste
and Consumer Power session:

• Have you carried out the actions you committed to?

• What was hard?
• What do you still want to get done (and what barriers do you need to remove to do it?)

If you haven’t had a chance to yet, take a few minutes to individually read through this module (and have a
snack or a drink while you do it!).

Benchmarking your progress (2 mins)

When you registered for this program, you would have consented to The Neighbourhood Effect accessing
your electricity and gas billing data. By providing your consent for ActewAGL to pass on your electricity
and gas bill details to The Neighbourhood Effect, you’ve allowed us to benchmark your energy consumption
before, during and after the program. This data help us continually assess the effectiveness of the Transition
Streets workbook and improve it. Thank you!

By consenting to sharing your billing data, we’ll also be able to provide you with an estimate of your individual
energy-related emission reductions when you complete the workbook! Your data won’t be shared with any
third party without your express written consent. We’ll also add any emissions reductions you make through
your energy usage to the Transition Streets Community tally, so you can see how much of an impact everyone
participating has made by having a go at this program. If you and your group are interested in receiving a
personalised report on your energy-related emission reductions, you can email info@theneighbourhoodeffect.

See The Neighbourhood Effect’s Privacy policy here for more details on the data collection process, and how
we ensure your information is kept private and secure.
