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.

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.

Check out our how our team Federally assesses Candidates and Parties

Green Light Candidates

David Bradbury (Independent)

Davis qualifies as an Outstanding Green Light Candidate

Local filmmaker, David Bradbury, says he will run against PM Anthony Albanese in his safe Sydney seat of Grayndler as an independent at the upcoming federal election.

Bradbury says, ‘I have just returned from three months shooting a film in the belly of the beast, Washington DC, capital of the world’s mightiest empire’. 

‘My determination to take Albo on has grown out of increasing dissatisfaction and grave concern with the direction Australia is headed’.

He says Labor is no longer the great anti-war party of the working class and the poor.

‘I fear our servile attitude to the US will lead us into a war with China, which will very quickly turn nuclear’. 

‘Taxes are needed urgently to address the housing crisis in Australia, to build new public hospitals, to lift public education standards for our kids and future-proof Australian homes and small businesses in the firing line of more bushfires and floods.’ 

David supports the 3Rs and endorses the Climate Emergency Accord

Hannah Thomas (Greens)

I moved to this country in 2009 as an international student. I know what it’s like to experience racism and live in a state of visa precarity. I’m lucky to have grown up in a family with strong progressive values and have been involved in community organising and activism for years, on issues such as refugee rights, the climate crisis, integrity in politics and freedom for Palestine.

I love the Inner West. As an immigrant, I’ve found the people in our community to be some of the warmest, kindest and most generous people I’ve met in this country. They deserve someone who will fight for them and who genuinely represents their values.

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 Representatives

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 strategy will help discourage the worst scenario for climate action which would result from a combative Coalition/right wing party majority in the senate.
