We are in a climate and mass extinction crisis.
Catastrophic floods and unprecedented bushfires raging for months.
Blistering heatwaves. Reef bleaching. Severe drought. And it's getting worse.
Climate damage is here, now. Digging up and burning coal is cooking our planet and harming the people and wildlife we love.
Immediate rescue and relief is vital. But we must also make sure the causes of this crisis are addressed, not just the symptoms. Because we can't let this become the new normal.
Our leaders need to step up. To plan and prepare communities and make the transition from coal to clean energy fair and equitable.
We can, we must and we will move Australia beyond coal and solve the climate crisis. Donate now and help us deliver the long-term solutions our people and planet need.
Here’s what we're doing:
- Telling the truth about the crisis and the need for real change. We demand urgent action and push to end complacency in Parliament. Let’s end silence in mainstream media.
- Pushing our elected representatives to step up. At all levels of government, our elected representatives must act now to ramp up renewables, phase out coal, support impacted communities with new employment opportunities in clean energy, halt the destruction of nature and massively increase funding for eco-system recovery.
- Taking on big coal and climate-wrecking corporations and lobby groups. We expose corruption and destruction. We conduct investigatory work to join the dots between lobby groups and their fossil fuel follies. We challenge bad decisions in court and push business to do good for people and our planet.
- Keep building an unstoppable movement. We connect and inspire communities and pilot solutions. Our movement is stronger than ever before. Together, we can build a better, fairer, safer world where we don’t just survive, but thrive
