61 dwellings were assessed during the trial, revealing a 70% average reduction in life cycle carbon emissions, exceeding the 50% target. This resulted in 20,742 tonnes of CO2e saved, equivalent to planting 127,266 trees. Subsequent assessments of 17 dwellings showed a 68.26% reduction and 7,432 tonnes of CO2e savings. Our City's initiative can be replicated by other Local Governments, supported by educational materials provided online.
