Communities across Victoria are about to make a change for a cleaner and greener future, swapping their energy-hungry light bulbs for new efficient ones through Bendigo Bank’s Ban the Bulb campaign.
The campaign offers Victorian home and business owners the opportunity to replace their incandescent light bulbs with energy-saving ones, installed free of charge by local community volunteer groups. For each bulb exchanged the community group is paid $2.
This year’s�mpa� will� rolled�t to more�an 50 commu�ies across Victoria, with 300,000 globes set to be exchanged in more than 17,500 homes and 2,500 businesses. The initiative will save about 150, 000 tonnes in carbon emissions-the equivalent of taking 35,000 cars off our roads for a year.
And importantly, it’s expected th�year's campaign will raise $600,000 for participating groups, money that will be used to support projects and programs in their local communities
Ban the Bulb is supported and funded by Bendigo Bank’s Generation Gr� program in partnship with AGL, Low Energy Supplies and Services, Carbon Down, VECCI and the Victorian Government’s Sustainability �d
