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.

Green Light Candidates
Nathan Barton (Independent)

Our community needs representation that combines strength and understanding. The major parties are becoming increasingly disconnected from everyday Australians, drifting toward ideological extremes rather than practical solutions. We need leadership that can bring people together to tackle the real challenges facing our community – from cost of living pressures to improving mental health services.
Through my work in both the military and mental health, I’ve seen how the best solutions come from listening to people and focusing on practical results, not political point-scoring. We can have both aspiration and compassion, both economic strength and environmental responsibility. But we need someone who will actively engage with the community and fight for sensible, evidence-based policies.
My life has taught me that the best leaders listen first. As a former Army Reservist for 22 years and a practicing psychologist, I’ve learned that strength and understanding go hand in hand. Whether leading in a reconnaissance unit or counselling veterans and community members, I’ve seen how real solutions emerge when we truly listen to each other.
I’m ready to bring this same approach to Parliament – combining genuine representation with practical action to deliver results for Moore.
I’ll stand up for what matters most to us, not what’s dictated by party politics.
Together, we can do this.

Scott McCarthy (Greens)

My partner and I have lived locally in Moore for nearly four years, and we plan to stay here until our kids are grown up. Moore is a great place, full of beautiful lakes, parks, bush reserves, and beaches that span the electorate and everyone really cares about our community.
I joined the Greens because I know what it is like to struggle. I spent most of my twenties barely scraping by, struggling to afford the basics, like rent and groceries. I had it hard, but things are getting worse. I don’t want that for my kids, or any future generations.
The Greens have plans to tackle the cost of living, which means we’ll be able to enjoy cheaper groceries, free public transport, quality healthcare with no out of pocket costs and affordable housing.
Everyone deserves the kinder, fairer, happier future that the Greens are working to build.
Some people see the state of the world as static, inevitable, natural.
But nothing is further from the truth.
If people want change, they have to vote for it.
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.
