Help Australia tackle climate change

The Australian branch of WWF currently has a climate change campaign running in the lead-up to Copenhagen.

If you live in Australia you can quickly send an email to your state’s senators asking them to consider these four points:

  1. Australia should be a leader, not a laggard, in a strong global climate agreement at Copenhagen and passing the emissions trading scheme now will help.
  2. Climate action will create the clean energy jobs Australia needs to prosper this century, but more investment is needed.
  3. Don’t cave in to the big polluter lobby. Listen to the community.
  4. Extra action by individuals to reduce emissions should count towards the national target.

They also list phone numbers for all the senators and have a suggested telephone script. Click this link for more information on the four goals listed above.
