Cape Town: All Capetonians are urged to visit the City’s Let’s ACT at Home Exhibition. Schools and learners across the metro are especially encouraged to experience how to live in a future-fit home. The exhibition is an interactive learning space where visitors can step into a real-life example of net-zero carbon living and discover practical ways to reduce the energy use at home.
Reportedly, Grade-6 and 7 learners from Riverside Primary in Athlone visited the space earlier this week for a tour linked to their Natural Sciences curriculum.
Member of the Mayoral Committee for Energy – Alderman Xanthea Limberg said that during the visit, the learners can tour the Let’s ACT at Home Exhibition space, where they can explore practical demonstrations of how households can reduce energy consumption, lower costs and take meaningful climate action.
The exhibition showcases solutions, such as energy-efficient lighting, water-saving technologies, waste reduction solutions, insulation and smarter appliances use. These practical examples help learners to understand how small changes at home can contribute to a more sustainable and resilient city.
Let’s ACT campaign drives the message that small actions can lead to big changes. We all have the power to make a positive contribution to the schools, homes, workplaces, neighbourhoods and communities.
Considering this, Member of the Mayoral Committee for Energy – Alderman Xanthea Limberg added that the exhibition is part of the Cape Town Future Energy Festival. It is a city-wide movement to empower residents in their energy choices. By providing residents with knowledge, practical tools and inspiring experiences, the festival is helping households while creating awareness about the changing energy landscape and climate impacts.
Limberg further stated that by reaching diverse groups of people and communities across Cape Town, they can ensure that everyone contributes to the shared energy future. The exhibition is open to the public, and schools are encouraged to contact the team to book a tour.
