| Add your voice on June 13 to ask the Rudd government to: | ||

1. Invest in renewable energy We want 100% renewable energy by 2020. 2. Create green collar jobs and support workers We can renew our economy by creating hundreds of thousands of green jobs and supporting workers to make the shift to sustainable industries. 3. Back a strong global deal Australia must take the lead in global climate talks in Copenhagen 09, not undermine them with an ineffective 5%-25% emissions target. We must support those countries least responsible for climate change, including our Pacific neighbours. 4. Make big polluters pay with strong climate policy The government's draft Carbon Pollution Reduction Scheme must not become law in its current form. It would allow big companies to go on polluting and won't reduce Australia's greenhouse pollution. |
