👉WHY JOIN THIS PROTEST
Globally, temperature records tumble and climate disasters, like heatwaves, fires and floods, are devastating the lives of millions, hitting those least responsible first and hardest.
Fossil fuels, like coal and gas, are the greatest drivers of this crisis. Yet, since coming to power, the Albanese Government has approved more than 13 fossil fuel projects and 117 more are in the pipeline.
The science is clear: we cannot have new fossil fuel projects and ensure a safe future on this planet. 🌏 We need land rights for First Nations, a plan for workers, and to break the fossil fuel CEO’s hold over our democracy.
Join us to make history 💙
