You may also download and print them, or request some free stickers.
They have a variety of topics, so choose wisely.

Be responsible — do not order if you don't have a use for them.

    Now that's sustainable ;)

    • boomerpro on 29/01/2013 - 23:08

      Good one! how do you do italics?

      • SteveAndBelle on 29/01/2013 - 23:13

        Put an asterisk on each side of the word. I wonder if an italic asterisk is three in a row?

        Nope, that just draws a line. Odd.

        • boomerpro on 29/01/2013 - 23:20

          awesome i just figured out how to type in bold too! cheers mate

        • SteveAndBelle on 29/01/2013 - 23:25

          Snap, I just discovered that too. SWEEEEET!

          why couldn't they just use a normal text thingy with buttons on the top for italics and stuff?

        Lean to right when typing.

      Any idea if we can make multiple orders, I need more than 6 for my academic research ;). I reckon 1.99 is a fair price for a nice scenic glossy poster.

    Going by that lot I'd say the work experience kid found a few unopened boxes stacked out in the shed.

    Im gunna Neg this.. Not because of the OP or the posters but because people will mindlessly order free posters just because they are free

    Don't order these unless you really want them. Otherwise your doing the opposite to what these posters are trying to promote - Improving the environment

    Exhibit A

    Thanks. Requested 5 different posters which will gather dust somewhere in my home.

      i was thinking this, because its posted on this website means it wont go to the right people and the people they do want to let know now will not

      • m0nkeycheese on 29/01/2013 - 23:25

        Exactly! These should be reserved for schools and educational institutions. Not Click happy freebie hoarders

          Awareness is awareness though. Just look at this post, there's already been over 1000 clicks let alone the positive exposure SOME of the posters & downloads will get across the wider community. I completely agree with your sentiment however I don't agree with the negging sorry… but hey, what do I know ;)

          Yeah I'm not a big deal negger, but if more people read my comment because of the neg and think twice before requesting a poster, then that little red line has done its job :D

          Yes n only around 10% of Australia house hold has solar panel, mean out of 3822 clicks only 382 MIGHT have solar panel.

        • endotherm on 30/01/2013 - 13:15

          Not wanting to get into the whole quantum mechanics/nuclear physics thing, but if you look at sub-atomic particles you will see electrons orbiting around a nucleus. Electricity is electrons moving from atom to atom. The electricity you use is not created by destroying matter, rather it is the movement of electrons between the copper atoms in the wire supplying your computer with power. So as each electron is being shared and re-used between atoms, it is 100% recycled.

          And in case you didn't get the original quote, it was a play on "printed on 100% recycled paper".

    I'm not going to neg this but I refuse to upvote it. "The Department of Sustainability" sounds like something the government doesn't actually need to be spending money on. I'll play no part in wasting taxpayer funds.

    • tdw on 30/01/2013 - 01:46

      and it has a sort of doublespeak feel to it..

    • [Deactivated] on 30/01/2013 - 03:03

      The full name is Department of Sustainability, Environment, Water, Population and Communities (DSEWPaC). It's basically the Department of Environment (hence the URL environment.gov.au) with some added responsibilities.

  • 2ndeffort on 30/01/2013 - 00:32

    Some of those endangered possums look delicious, maybe I could use a couple of free posters to get the fire going then fry a couple up!!!

    I'd like to thank the OP. I've ordered 6 posters, we have an 11 yo daughter who these will benefit greatly for projects and a newborn who may even get some value from in future years, we might even frame some of them for home decoration and education material in one. Bargain!

    For me personally this is one of the better deals to come along in recent times.

    Shame on people ordering for no valid reason. Don't be an arse, if you have no need for them don't order them please.

    edit* Based on comments from above, hopefully all the people ordering posters who don't actually need them haven't exhausted the supplies, since I have actual use for them!

      There are thousands of trees down in QLD. If you want to help us clean up you can have all the wood you want.

      • grapedrink on 05/02/2013 - 11:24

        the wood is OK but the paper burns faster and hotter (especially with printing on it). all good, ordered a bunch of the posters just waiting for them to arrive then I can warm the place up!

    Man, they aren't going to have any posters after this….
    Terrible idea to post it here, they've been giving these out for free for years, I order one when I was in high school a decade ago. Oh well another thing ozbargained to death.
