The Macarthur Centre for Sustainable Living (MCSL) is on the road to becoming a world class educational facility.
It aims to demonstrate the benefits of alternative energy production and use, waste water recycling, energy efficiency, waste avoidance and green space management no matter where you are on the planet.
MCSL conducts community educational programs and projects out of its Mt Annan premises that build social capacity and empower individuals to embrace sustainable lifestyles.
Now it has been nationally recognized for its ambitious goals by winning the sustainability category of the 2017 Australian Business Awards.
“The centre is honoured to receive this award,’’ says Helen Byfield-Fleming, coordinator of MCSL.
Ms Byfield-Fleming said the award was recognition for MCSL’s achievements in the research and development of education for sustainable development programs.
“With this award, my staff and volunteers will be able to work towards a brighter future for the centre delivering sustainable education programs and activities for the Macarthur region and beyond,” Ms Byfield-Fleming said.
