The Kiss - Jervis Bay will be coordinating an interactive event “Food for Thought” linking the 2013 theme of Food Waste.

Participants will be able to view 13 plates, each plate highlighting a thought about taking care to personally reduce Food Waste.

We will also be conducting survey “Left on the plate”. Many cafes and restaurants throw away a large quantity of salad and vegetables. Enormous amounts of energy and resources are used to grow, harvest, transport and prepare foodstuff that is pushed to the side of plates. Our survey will hopefully assist local providers to rethink what and how they offer healthy menu options and reduce food waste.

The Kiss – Jervis Bay will also be displaying and supplying compostable and biodegradable eco friendly products catering supplies as alternatives to support this zero waste event.

The activity will result in a fun, interactive, and informative celebration of WED 2013.

Date: Saturday 1st June 2013 9am - 2pm

Venue: Lady Denman Heritage Centre

Dent St Huskisson NSW Australia

World Environment Day Jervis Bay 2012 June 24th

The Kiss - Jervis Bay coordinated an interactive event “Sustainability –3 “P’s” & Time” linking both the 2012 theme of Green Economy and the 40^th anniversary of World Environment Day.

Participants painted the three pillars of sustainability – large cut outs of People, Profit and Planet and united these pillars to highlight that by working together we can strengthen the goal of Sustainability. Flying from this installation was a flag timeline, colour themed with the 2012 WED logo. Each flag represented a year from 1972 until 2012. Major milestones of the United Nations Environment Program were written on additional flags which were attached to the corresponding year flag. The activity of connecting the milestone event with the year increased awareness of partipants and viewers of the significant achievements of UNEP WED over the last 40 years.

World Environment Day Jervis Bay 2011 June 4th

The Kiss - Jervis Bay will be coordinating an interactive event called "Create a Forest". A row of recycled board tree trunk stumps will line the walkway at The Lady Denman Maritime Museum Huskisson, the venue for World Environment Day in Jervis Bay. In the past Huskisson was a boat building and logging town. Participants will be able to paint and decorate large pieces of tree top foliage. As each piece of foliage is completed it will be attached to the tree trunk stumps. By the end of the activity a symbolic forest will have been created.This activity represents the past activities of our community, our ongoing efforts to protect our bushland and forests and an opportunity to be part of the United Nations global theme of Forests: Nature at your Service.
