#AustralianBushfire crisis: the links to #climatechange

Horrific fires are burning in every Australian state with over 5 million hectares already destroyed and 23 people dead.

Australia has always had bushfires but the current crisis is unlike any we’ve ever seen. And scientists tell us this is due to climate change.

Canada Bay declares climate emergency

Canada Bay council have declared we are in a climate emergency. This follows similar declarations from Inner West council, City of Sydney and dozens of other local councils in Australia.

We’re working to get all local councils to join the growing list!

Acting locally

We’ve been out connecting with our community recently in Burwood, Rhodes, Concord, Drummoyne, Five Dock and Breakfast Point.

We meet 6:30 – 8pm at
Woodstock Community Centre

Anyone is welcome to join if you share our aims. Learn how you can help make a difference!

Why our exports matter

Australia’s carbon emissions are rising.
That’s a problem.

But an even bigger problem is the fossil fuels we export, which other countries burn. Those emissions are rising even more dramatically.
