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
Phillip Leslie (LCP)

Phillip qualifies as an Outstanding Green Light Candidate
Born and bred in Western Australia, I’ve spent most of my life working hard on the ocean as a professional fisherman, in the mines, behind the wheel as a truck driver, and in the last 20 years before retirement, running my own chilli business.
I’m standing for the Legalise Cannabis Party because I believe in the power of cannabis as medicine. As a long-time pain sufferer, I’ve experienced first-hand how effective and natural this plant can be—and how much better it is than relying on pharmaceuticals.
I’m passionate about cannabis reform and want to see a future where people have legal, safe, and affordable access to this incredible plant. It’s time we recognised the benefits and moved forward with compassion and common sense.
LCP supports the 3Rs and endorses the Climate Rescue Accord
Eric Hayward (Greens)

Hi, I’m Eric! I’m proud to be running as your Greens candidate for Tangney in the federal election and for the seat of Cannington in the WA state election.
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.
