Taronga is dedicated to continually reducing our environmental footprint. We strive to embed sustainable work practices into the core of our business.
During this workshop, participants tour our facilities to see how we are reducing our environmental impacts in key areas such as water, energy and waste. Learn how we are achieving our objectives by setting appropriate targets, assigning responsibilities and allocating resources.
Get inspired to lead by example and help drive a sustainable culture in your community!
