Karl O'Callaghan, Commissioner of
Police
"Change never seems easy.
But Daysofchange.org shows us change doesn't always require
sacrifice. By taking initiatives such as switching off
electrical appliances after hours, driving more fuel efficient
cars and not over heating or over cooling our homes
and workplaces, we can reduce our impact on the environment
and save money.
As WA's Commissioner of Police, I aim to change the way our
police officers keep the state safe. By making some changes,
we can provide better policing services to the community,
improve the agency's cost efficiency and help
the environment.
People often avoid change in favour of the familiar; we're more
comfortable leaving things the way they are and doing things
the way they've always been done.
But our planet is changing whether we like it or not and if we
don't change our ways, future generations will suffer the
consequences.
A few people making a few changes can make a big difference. I
therefore offer my personal support to Daysofchange.org and
commit WA Police to continue reducing our environmental
footprint."

"My role as WA ambassador for the Stephanie Alexander School
Kitchen Garden Foundation has shown me how important hands-on grass

of where our food comes from will have a major impact on our
collective futures."

a month, in fact longer than that, we had an opportunity to teach
the students to show their learning and connect with their family.

is actually throwing a lesson, putting some action in place and
letting it connect with all the people of York over a long period
of time."
