About us

Introduction

Most people are aware of the global environmental crisis that our society is currently facing. Householder’s Options to Protect the Environment Inc (known as HOPE) is a not-for-profit organisation that wishes to contribute to a global solution to this crisis by providing local opportunities for change.

While HOPE endorses individual action, it also encourages people to act together in their local community, and in society as a whole. Whether you live in urban, rural or regional Australia, you too can lessen your impact on the global environment, by adopting sustainable living practices at home, at work and at school.

HOPE’s head office is located in Toowoomba, Queensland and has members and supporters throughout Australia. We hold face-to-face meetings four times a year, whilst keeping in regular contact by email and through our website. In order to maximise the message of our environmental responsibility, HOPE seeks other groups, activities and events which proclaim similar messages.

HOPE is not affiliated with any political party.

Our core values

HOPE is founded on a vision of a society which is sustainable ecologically, economically and socially. The core idea of HOPE is that, while we have to think about the environment as a whole – on a planet-wide scale – we need to act locally, in our own communities in a way that’s effective and meaningful. So, our slogan is:

What do we want to achieve?

HOPE aims to raise awareness of, and encourage active participation in, waste minimisation and the conservation of energy and resources. HOPE encourages people to take responsibility for their relationship with the environment in their daily lives.
