Queenslanders, our sunshine state has the tools and talent to become a renewable energy superpower – and shift away from digging and burning fossil fuels that drive climate impacts.
Ramping up climate solutions now will create long-term jobs in our regions, help restore our incredible forests and slash climate pollution this decade. But we need to act now or let the opportunity slip through our fingers.
Sign the petition. We need thousands of us to call on our state government to invest in the solutions and make Queensland a climate and nature champion. Together Queensland CAN!
For more information on how Queensland can slash pollution and create jobs in future industries this decade, see the brand new Queensland CAN! report commissioned by ACF, Queensland Conservation Council and World Wildlife Fund Australia.

COAL KILLS from pollution to global warming. Politicians who continue to support coal mining for burning will one day be charged with a Crime against Humanity.
Coal has many other uses from lithium to graphene. Why are we not supporting these well documented, value added processes?

We have to play our part in looking after our planet
ALL of Qld needs to wake up and attack climate change with a vengeance. Summer is coming – heat and floods – CLIMATE CHANGE IS HERE! No such nonsense as 2030 or 2050 – IT’S HERE. If we are to survive then we have to OUTLAW COAL MINES, STOP CUTTING DOWN OLD GROWTH FOREST,
Queensland can lead the long overdue move to renewable energy. We need government leadership now more than ever to protect our state, our country and the world.
I want QLD to be a leader in environmental change for the sake of our generation and those that follow. 🙏
I want Queensland to be a climate champion because we are in the middle of a climate crisis with no more time to lose and we are well placed to be one of the nation’s and world’s leaders when it comes to renewables and green alternatives to fossil fuels. We can make it happen.
I want Queensland to become a Climate and nature champion because we can. Not only will it be good for jobs and the economy, but this action will benefit my family and all families who can continue to enjoy, care for and live in harmony with creation.
Queensland needs to take real action on climate change.
Stop mining coal!
Listen to the experts; it’s nearly too late.
We need to be acting now to preserve our natural habitat and species, for future generations to enjoy and because it will mitigate climate change!
Why not lead the way and know that this too will create jobs for all Queenslanders.
Let us create a supportive natural way of living and support our leaders to implement the best knowledge to support nature.
Queensland has excellent and extensive renewable energy resources and has no need to continue fossil fuel use. Investment in hydrostorage and batteries, and EV transport would make Qld a fossil fuel free state, provide jobs and investment opportunities and lead to it being a world leader in protecting life on earth from the life threatening global warming
When it comes to climate pollution, near enough is not good enough. It’s a matter of life or death, Please take this matter seriously.
I want Queensland to protect nature in many ways. Qld can be effective in nature protection by being a renewables champion instead of promoting fossil fuels.
We need a sustainable future
It’s time Queensland stood up to be counted in leading the way !!
We have too much to lose by inaction.
Queensland has so much diversity, special places & wildlife to protect. Let’s do it now before we lose it.
