About the presenter
Since Carole commenced at Strathbogie Shire Council 15 months ago, she has been focused on designing programs and projects that create a hybrid mitigation-adaptation impact, are scaleable, and give something positive back to the whole community. This includes a rural solar and battery bulk buy, a low income energy efficiency bulk buy, and the emerging Rural Sustainability Foundation.
