There is growing public momentum for our governments to act on climate and now is the time to build on that. 2022 is an election year, as constituents and voters we’re in an important position where our actions have a heightened impact. The more of us who demand action, the more our politicians will listen.
We’re coming together to urge all electoral candidates in the upcoming federal election to advocate for strong climate policies and take climate action. We’ll be doing this by writing, calling or organising a visit to engage with all electoral candidates and inviting them to host a climate conversation with their networks.
Join us at a pub in Brisbane — it’s amazing how much better it makes you feel, working together and encouraging our politicians to follow through on their promises and make things happen in parliament!
We need to keep up the pressure, demand that our elected MPs take a stronger position on emissions reduction targets and any candidate running for MP are willing to commit and support the Climate Bill by investing more in renewable energy.
No matter which electorate you live in, we can help you to write a clear and effective letter to your MP or another electoral candidate.
The climate crisis hasn't gone away and we need to keep our politicians to account. It matters to MPs what the mood in their electorate is and what constituents want. But they can’t know that unless we tell them!
If you have never written to a politician or called one before, come along and we can help you get started. You'll need your laptop or tablet, and we'll have templates, materials and ideas to make it easy to make a difference.
If you have already contacted your MP and have received a lacklustre reply, we can workshop a follow-up plan together, and make sure we’re still keeping the pressure on at this crucial time.
Please RSVP to receive updates & resources, and allow us to book enough space.
See you at the pub for a drink, a chat and some climate action!
