Burning coal and gas fuels climate destruction, making Australia’s fire seasons start earlier and last longer – and putting the people and places we love in more danger with less time to prepare.
These disasters will only get worse until we rapidly cut climate pollution. The Australian Government must do more to protect people, not polluters.
While communities and koala populations battle unnatural blazes this summer, our government has just approved four new coal mine expansions!
Since the 2019/20 Black Summer bushfires, our governments have handed over $50 billion in public money to support the fossil fuel industry. Dirty coal and gas polluters make mega profits while everyday Australians pick up the bill from climate disasters – from lives lost to holidays cancelled to spiralling insurance, grocery and energy bill costs.
Sign the petition now to demand our government stop the climate wreckers.
Petition demands
"To the Prime Minister, Energy Minister, Environment Minister and Treasurer:
End coal and gas in Australia to ramp up climate action. That means:
- This decade, replacing existing coal, gas and uranium exports with a renewable-powered exports industry and climate-positive careers for communities
- No new coal and gas projects or infrastructure
- Stop spending public money on the fossil fuel industry – fund climate solutions instead."

Fossil fuels are destroying the world we know. We must stop our dependence on them so our planet has a chance.
It’s sooooo obvious the science was ignored by Government for too long & now the predictions about the climate are exceeded… ACT! Stop heating the planet for our children’s sake.,

Stop burning fossil fuels and burn-off using Aboriginal methods!
We urgently need to phase out coal and gas, we cannot wait any longer, our climate is changing rapidly impacting all living beings, native wildlife and biodiversity.
mining for coal and gas doesn’t care for us or the land. There are so many people who know so much about sustainable living, that’s not about making profit but about thriving together.
I want an end to coal amd gas as there is no planet B
I want Australia to end coal and gas because i want our planet to survive and still be livable for future generations
Gas and Coal has to stay in the ground, we and the planet are facing extinction if we don’t do this.
Why are our governments continuing to ignore the science & obvious impacts of climate change caused by burning of fossil fuels & continued deforestation?
Sincere action to address these devastating impacts should have been done decades ago. Instead, proper action has been delayed in favour of short-term profits gained by continuing such damaging practices. Supposedly the most intelligent species on this planet, we as a single species, have managed to create the worst catastrophic problems that threaten life itself (including our own). How stupid is that!
We need our country’s leaders to take immediate & long-term action on climate change.
I am deeply converned about climate change and its effects; bush fires, drought, floods and increasingly high temp
The trabsition from coal and gas power MUST be as fast as possible because climate change will reach negatively into all forms of life and activity on tge planet.
It is past time to do all that to provide for our childrens future on thi planet. That means the use off fossil fuels must end. Let Australia be a world leader in this area, not a follower.
Old greedy men are making the wrong decisions for the future of mankind. Wake up!
I want our earth to survive. Unburned, and with forests and bush, for our wildlife, and our grandchildren’s grandchildren.
I want Australia to end coal and gas because I want our beautiful country to survive. I want my grandchildren and my great grandchildren to live where the air is clear and the water is clean.
If we dont stop burning coal and gas we are looking at the end of human existence on planet earth by the end of the century, and the tipping point is only 7 years away, according to CSIRO. You have the power to change this before it is too late. On behalf of all living plants and creatures on Earth, please, please do. Stop approving new coal mines and gas fields now!!!
Time and our carbon budget are running out
I’m over having my life and the whole country dictated to by a bunch of billionaires who give nothing back, don’t even pay their taxes, and are actively destroying everything they can get their hands on.
Stop supporting fossil fuel companies, if action is not taken now, planet earth will be uninhabitable
I want a healthy environment for my grandchildren
I want a liveable climate for our future, to avoid climate catastrophes of flood and fire and high temperatures that will destroy our collective future
We owe to future generations and all life on planet earth to reduce the impact on global warming.
If we continue to burn fossil fuels we will burn.
I want climate safety. I want a future to live in where we still have food and agriculture.
