The Canberra Wave will be a peaceful two day occupation for climate justice on the final days of Parliament for 2024, including a MASS RALLY at 12pm on 27 November. Join with thousands on Federal Parliament House lawns, on Ngunnawal and Ngambri country, to demand that Prime Minister Albanese answers: WHEN WILL YOU STOP NEW COAL AND GAS?
Hold Labor accountable for its disappointing climate failure, as we ride the wave of energy following the People’s Blockade of the World’s Largest Coal Port in Newcastle.
⭐Tues Nov 26, 5pm: Procession from the Aboriginal Tent Embassy to Parliament Lawns to start the occupation
⭐Wed Nov 27: Occupation continues including 12pm MASS RALLY with speakers and music: Teen Jesus and the Jean Teasers!🎶

Join us for the 12pm Wed MASS RALLY: Stop Fuelling the Climate Crisis, or the whole occupation -with live music, dance, art, workshops and more.

👉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 💙
