Extreme weather is already costing Australians BILLIONS - and without action, it will only get worse. 📈

That's why it’s time to make big polluters pay.

She may be on leave, but Jo couldn’t stay quiet on our 2035 climate targets.

Yr 12 students are setting the bar high for their exams right now. Why can’t our govt set the bar high for their future?

62-70% is not good enough. Find and tell your Labor MP & Senators: aph.gov.au/Senators_and_Members

At last week's hearing on the National Climate Risk Assessment, our CEO Serena Joyner explained: fossil fuel corporations rake in record profits, while we're left to pay for the climate damage they cause.

It's time they paid their fair share.

Australia’s 2035 target of 62–70% isn’t strong enough. If every country did this, we’d exceed 2.4°C of warming.

That would bring more frequent and dangerous bushfires, more deaths from heat and smoke, and 5 times the damage bill.

The government have announced their target of 62-70% emissions reduction by 2035. We know this is not enough.

After the release of the alarming National Climate Risk Assessment, we are ashamed the government has set such a dangerously low target.

We are deeply disappointed.

Fiona Lee lost her home in 2019. Today, there are 2 big things happening in her life: she’s installing sprinklers on her new home - and the government is going to reveal its 2035 climate targets.

We are doing what we can to stay safe, we need governments to do the same.

The government must set strong 2035 climate targets - and make coal and gas corporations pay their fair share through a climate pollution levy.

What can you do?

Yesterday's National Climate Risk Assessment confirms what bushfire survivors already know: our communities are on the frontline of worsening extreme weather and disasters.

But there’s hope. We can act now to protect lives and our communities...

Murray Watt has just signed off on an expansion of Glencore’s Ulan coal mine near Mudgee - granting access to 18.8 million extra tonnes of coal until 2035. That means an additional 663 million tonnes of Scope 3 emissions when that coal is burned.

While ordinary people are paying the price of escalating climate disasters, big polluters keep raking in record profits.

It’s time they paid their fair share.

🔥 4 years ago survivors made history.

We won a case against the NSW EPA - the Court ruled they have a legal duty to act on climate change.

⚖️ It was the first time an Australian court forced a government to take meaningful climate action.

Together, we can win climate action. 🌏

We're holding our breaths this week as the government prepares to announce our 2035 climate targets.

For bushfire survivors, this moment means the world. We're ready to see a strong commitment to a safer future.

New YouGov poll shows Aussies want stronger climate action.

The Productivity Commission warns ignoring climate risks could cost $26B in 20 yrs & push damages from $9B to $35B

Call your Labor Representatives & the PM: We need a strong 2035 target.

Climate change is a public health emergency.
Burning fossil fuels drives this crisis, worsening respiratory diseases, heat-related deaths, and extreme weather.

“Realistic” shouldn’t mean watered-down.
If it’s not protecting Aussies from worsening climate harm, then it’s not realistic at all.

We need to do the best we can to keep Australians safe - and set a strong 2035 climate target.
