Dumping net-zero isn’t leadership - it’s abandonment. The coalition dumping Net Zero is a slap in the face to every community facing climate impacts. We are rightfully furious. #NetZero #AusPol #BushfireSurvivors

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. Sign: bushfiresurvivors.org/mbpp #MakeBigPollutersPay

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. #ClimateTargets2035

“When will the government stop trading our lives – and your homelands – for fossil fuel profits?” The Australian Climate Case judgment was heartbreaking. But the government has a chance to do the right thing. The 2035 target should be reasonable. And that means science-based. #ClimateTargets2025
