This is the decade for climate solutions
Together we keep growing a thriving movement for climate action that wins hearts and minds. Now our decision-makers are starting to take action with us.
Our state and federal governments are lifting their emissions reduction targets, investing in large-scale, publicly-owned wind and solar power.
But our governments are still spending billions in public money on coal, gas and oil. Australia continues to be the world’s biggest exporter of coal and liquified natural gas (LNG).
No matter where coal and gas are burnt, it drives climate impacts here at home and across the world.
Climate damage is here, now. We urgently need bolder and more ambitious action. The solutions are here and they'll make our lives better.
- Ending coal and gas in Australia is the most effective way to slash pollution now.
- Harnessing clean energy from the sun and wind can replace coal, gas and uranium, make us a world leader in renewable energy, create future-proof jobs in communities like Gladstone, Queensland, and a lucrative new export industry for our economy.
- Protecting and restoring nature helps keep our planet cool. The tall wet forests of southeast Australia and the wet tropics of Queensland are some of the biggest carbon banks on earth.
- Travelling cleaner and smarter will take pollution off our roads. We can build more paths to walk and cycle and electrify our public transport and cars.
Ramping up climate solutions now will create a brighter, safe climate future. Let’s get on with it!
