The Lowdown

When:
Where: Online
Costs: none

What’s involved?

The Australian Government needs to make a serious commitment to climate change: a 40 per cent reduction of green house gas emissions by 2020. The government’s decision is being made soon so it’s important for us to throw our weight behind the issue now.

Why should people do this?

The consequences of climate change will affect this generation…melting ice caps, rising sea levels, extinctions, and even coastal villages and towns being forced to relocate.

Politicians often need some gentle pressure to do the right thing – even if it’s something they promised to do in their election campaign. So click the link and sign your name!
