Don't be fooled, the Federal Labor Government can back the #CSIRO and fund innovative solutions to very real, modern problems - they just choose not to.

A new study from a group of scientists, including Climate Council fellow Dr Wesley Morgan, has found a way to calculate the climate impact of individual fossil fuel projects.
We must urgently cut climate pollution to ensure a safer future for vulnerable communities and generations to come.

This is beyond outrageous. The ACT Government knew a significant number of dragons had died earlier this year, yet didn't do everything they could to prevent an unnecessary development destroying one of their last habitats.

The Federal Labor Government needs to stop kicking people off the NDIS with no other support in place. Disability only exists because we have decision makers putting in policies that actively exclude people from being part of their community.

A pretty devastating blow for our community, environment and Canberra Earless Dragons today.
The Federal Labor Government has given the green light for the Canberra Airport's Northern Road Development which cuts right through key habitat for our little lizards.

This is despite the fact they cannot justify how this provides any value to everyday people.

The ACT Greens have negotiated a better deal for Canberra today. We secured significant concessions from Labor on their unfair health levy. It is now reduced from $250 to $100 AND we secured commitment from government to partially adopt our plan to get big corporations to pay their fair share.

ACT Labor have announced they are ending the Rent Relief Fund - a lifeline for a lot of people in Canberra who have otherwise been at risk of homelessness. With a public housing waiting list that barely moves we can’t cut measures that help people have a safe, secure place to call home.

The Greens are backing the community-led battle to save the critically-endangered Canberra Earless Dragons.
The Northern Road development at the Canberra Airport will likely see one of the last three remaining dragon populations perish.
