Carbon Neutral Communities

NAGA was one of the industry partners for the Carbon Neutral Communities research project (2007-2009) led by RMIT's Centre for Design. The project was funded by an Australian Research Council Linkage Grant.

The research aimed to:
  • Identify carbon neutral potential, and social, economic, cultural and capacity barriers to achieving this potential;
  • Assess the application of established techniques to address such barriers and provide practical solutions to carbon transition;
  • Develop and test strategies for building the capacity needed to facilitate the breakthrough required in achieving carbon neutral communities by 2020, the key date in The National Greenhouse Strategy ; and
  • Disseminate this knowledge to project stakeholders and the wider community.

Research papers and presentations can be found at the CNC website.
