You can learn about how to effectively use Traffic Light Voting Guides for the upcoming Federal election by following this link to our video and familiarising yourself with its instructions:

Here’s how you can make climate a compelling issue locally.

Hand out Traffic Light A5 How to Vote cards at polling booths. Phone or text 0427 580 803 to arrange for print ready artwork tailored for your electorate. You can then print the How to Vote card using your home printer or for larger numbers use the services of a commercial printer.

This is particularly effective to help add extra reach to Green Light independent campaigns and draw in swinging voters. Vote Climate One’s assessment of candidates has the elevated status of being fiercely independent.

Adam qualifies as an Outstanding Green Light Candidate

Dear Rob and Vote Climate One Team,

Thank you for reaching out and for the insightful conversation we had. I appreciate the opportunity to address your assessment questions.

1. Commitment to Real Action on Ecological and Climate Emergency

If elected to the next Federal House of Representatives, I am committed to supporting and advocating for real action on issues related to the ecological and climate emergency. This includes:

• Implementing Comprehensive Strategies: Advocating for policies that align with the Climate Rescue Accord’s 3Rs—Reduce, Remove, and Reflect—to effectively address global heating.
• Collaborative Efforts: Working alongside fellow parliamentarians, communities, and organizations to develop and implement solutions that mitigate climate change impacts and promote environmental sustainability.

2. Application of the 3Rs, Climate Rescue Accord, and Green Transition

I fully support the application of the 3Rs framework, the Climate Rescue Accord, and the principles of the Green Transition to inform, when relevant, my position and advocacy on legislation and policy. Specifically:

• Reduce: Championing initiatives aimed at achieving near-zero emissions across all sectors, including energy, transport, and agriculture, through evidence-based roadmaps and the cessation of fossil fuel expansion.
• Remove: Supporting efforts to enhance natural carbon sequestration, such as rewilding and preventing deforestation, to draw down excess greenhouse gases from the atmosphere.
• Reflect: Advocating for urgent research and development into immediate cooling strategies to counteract the loss of the aerosol masking effect and actively cool the planet until other measures achieve a safe climate.

TRAFFIC LIGHT VOTING GUIDE ASSESSMENT WARNING

The team at Vote Climate One may change our Traffic Light voting advice right up to shortly before election day. For instance it is very difficult to access ranking information from parties or candidates who have no public email, phone number or little internet profile. In these cases, we apply the precautionary principle with a Red Light ranking until further information and commitment to climate rescue comes to hand.

Please contact us if you have local information which could effect our rankings. Phone Rob 0n 0427 580 803

The major parties have let the Australian public down when it comes a serious policy commitment to action on the ecological and climate crisis. Consequently, we have assessed both the Labor party and the Coalition as Red Light parties. Nevertheless, in relation to our Traffic Light Voting guides, the Labor party has been ranked orange ahead of the Coalition which remains a stubborn Red Light proposition.

The House of Representitives

Labor is ranked Orange for the House of Reps. The opportunity for a Green Transition, sparked by the influence of a progressive cross bench holding the balance of power in a Labor minority government, is our bet bet for climate rescue.

The Senate

Likewise our senate Traffic Light Voting Guides also promote Labor ahead of the Coalition using an Orange Light status. This stategy will help discourage the worst senario for climate action which would result from a combative Coalition/right wing party majority in the senate.
