What's being said about Y Green?
A lot of people don’t know much about how to save electricity or reduce their carbon footprint... it's been good to be able to help them and it’s interesting too. People have been responsive and seem genuinely interested in the work we’re doing... I guess that’s cause we’re not selling something.
- Anne, Y Green Student Participant, Rouse Hill Project
I publicly call on our counterparts in other Councils... to follow our lead – to not only take up the challenge to help our residents reduce their greenhouse gas emissions but to give our youth the opportunity to be part of this – to gain skills in this emerging industry and lead the way forward.
- Councillor Sonya Phillips, Mayor, The Hills Shire Council (August 2008)
It was good to get independent advice without someone trying to sell something

I didn’t realise that the outdoor spa was using up so much power when we weren’t even using it
