Introduction
The Sustainable Dunedin City Society is made up of persons who are interested in the issues of climate change, declining energy security and sustainability, as they affect Dunedin City. The Society is not affiliated with any political party and aims to facilitate a positive, secure and sustainable future for Dunedin City in the face of challenges posed by climate change, declining energy security, and unsustainable resource use.
The Society conducts research and disseminates information on climate change, declining energy security, and sustainability, and promotes awareness of these issues to the wider community. It aims to influence individuals, businesses and governments to adapt their behaviours and policies to reflect the growing importance of these issues.
