Hi Neighbour understands that the renewables revolution is headed for the Coal Coast and knows if we don’t act now it will happen to us, not with us. We need to make sure new low carbon jobs stay local and local community enjoy the benefits of a renewables transformation. To honour the heart of this place and to protect our future, we need to build ourselves into the industries that will come to redefine this region.
Hi Neighbour’s two-fold approach of emission reduction and training for future industry is our way of bringing everyone together in this mission. If you live next door to someone whose first priority is energy transition, while yours is stable jobs for your kids in industries that supported you and your parents, you might feel we are hopelessly divided. We promise: we’re not. Hi Neighbour knows both perspectives come from a desire to protect your families’ futures, and all concerns are legitimate. You and your neighbours deserve a game plan for a future that includes everyone on the street. You deserve the ingenuity and solutions-based thinking Australians are famous for, having given the world wifi, the cochlear ear and the electric drill. Hi Neighbour is a path to a safe environment and the safe jobs that go along with it.
It is essential to proactively plan for an energy future that supports a fair energy transition and positive community outcomes. At Hi Neighbour we know our region can become a shining example of what is possible.
