Get Up! Action for Australia – National day of Climate Action

The last month was the hottest on record.

The last 12 months were the hottest on record.

The last summer was the hottest on record.

And what is our government doing about it?

So far it has been slashing jobs at the CSIRO, not sending a senior minister to the climate negotiations in Poland, and shutting down the Climate Commission.

Get Up! Action for Australia is partnering with the Fire Brigade Employees’ Union (FBEU), Australian Youth Climate Coalition, Greenpeace Australia Pacific, Environment Victoria and OxfamAustralia to make clear, that the majority of all Australians wants climate action.

This Sunday there will be huge rallies across the country, in every capital city, but also in hundreds of regional towns. 

On November 17th they are launching the National Day of Climate Action all across Australia.

They want us to turn up the heat on Climate Action by wearing red, orange and yellow clothes and you are welcome to come up with other creative ideas as well, like facepaint, signs, banners, hats, umbrellas etc.

What: National Day of Climate Action

When: November 17th, 11am
