The Total Environment Centre (TEC) believes in a fairer, greener world for all. They’ve worked for over 40 years to preserve the ecosystems that support living landscapes and healthy communities across Australia.

Originally TEC was formed by the save the rainforests movement of the 1970s, which to preserve clean air and stop coastal sand mining. Today they are, supporting communities to conserve precious parks and bushland. TEC push for recycling infrastructure to protect waterways and oceans from plastic pollutants, and sturdy legislation around native animals and plants to ensure food and water security for future Australians. TEC advocate for renewable energy by encouraging innovation, a more flexible modern energy market, and incentivising government investment. These are the building blocks of a sustainable Australia.

Under the stewardship of our executive director Jeff Angel, TEC has remained a lean, independent and campaign-focused not-for-profit, with a reputation for calm measured policy advice, persistent campaigning and integrity.

In recent years TEC’s award winning educational communications projects – the documentary film Waste Not, the mobile Ocean Action POD, and the HotHouse event series - have expanded TEC's traditional campaign activities across social media and other platforms into schools, universities, art galleries and public festivals.
