I just used the My Climate 2050 tool to explore how climate change could affect our area in the next 30 years if we don’t raise Australia’s ambition to cut climate pollution now. https://myclimate.acf.org.au/ The potential impact on our local area is alarming, but if we act now we can avoid the worst impacts. I urge you to use this tool to also explore what’s at stake in our electorate. I am deeply concerned that our government’s current targets and policies are not enough to keep global warming within 1.5 degrees. Digging, burning and exporting polluting fuels like coal and gas is the biggest driver of climate impacts in Australia. Despite this, our state and federal governments hand over $22,000 in public money to the fossil fuel industry every minute. Public money is funding the industries most responsible for climate change so that they can keep polluting and open new polluting coal and gas projects. I urge you, as my representative in Parliament, to be responsible for your community and work with your colleagues to ensure a safe climate future for all. Australia must: - Replace existing coal, gas and uranium exports this decade with a renewable-powered exports industry and climate-positive careers for communities - Stop new coal and gas projects or infrastructure from being built - Stop spending public money on the fossil fuel industry, and fund climate solutions instead. Will you explore the My Climate 2050 tool, and take the above actions for a safe climate future? I look forward to hearing from you.
