What does a green future Willoughby City look like to you?

A community who values recycling and does its best to reduce the amount of waste it produces

Collectively working towards producing less waste

Sufficient playing fields & parks, for the increased population in the area & retention of current bushland. No hi-rise overshadowing parks.

Maintain "green corridors" throughout the Willoughby LGA so wildlife is not isolated by inevitable increasing development

Green roofs for all new constructions

Any new construction with a flat area over a certain size should be mandated to be a green space, bus shelters, car ports, extensions, homes etc. A green space like this has many benefits, such as: 1. Absorbing rain water, which can help lower the risk of flooding. 2. Helping flora and fauna, these small grassy areas can provide enough space to grow native flowers which can help bees and insect truce as well as the birds that feed on those. 3. Lowering temp. A green roof actually helps insulate a building which lowers the temp in seer and raises it in winter, reducing the need for air conditioners or heating.
