Climate Action
From fires to floods, climate change is affecting us all, with the potential for extreme damage to our homes, our communities and our economy. We not only need to take urgent action to transition rapidly to efficient, zero emission, low cost energy but to enable communities dependent on fossil fuel industries to effectively transition to better clean energy jobs for the future. If we’re elected, we’ll:
- Legislate a net zero emissions commitment for NSW by 2030
- Ban all future fossil fuel mining and fracking applications
- Reintroduce NSW SEPP (Design and Place State Environmental Planning Policy) protocols for environmentally-friendly, energy-efficient buildings
- Eliminate shonky greenwashed biodiversity offsets
- Repeal draconian anti-climate change protest laws
“We tend to consider systems fairly mechanical production systems, road systems, political systems. We think of order as imposed and restrictive. But nature’s order is quick and responsive, its sustaining systems ineffable and silent, too complex for formulation and too subtle for perception, until they go wrong.”

Socialist Alliance
Our rigorous assessment has scored green light parties above all others on ecological and climate policy. We advise you to preference members of parties like this first on your ballot paper.

The Greens NSW
The NSW Greens have an excellent climate policy. Their parliamentary performance supporting action on climate has been outstanding. The Greens are the only minor party which has been ranked with a Green Light. Their policies and voting record contrast starkly with the National Party who are unequivocally Red Light on climate.

Independents
Independents are not bound by party rules. Since they are free to vote on the merits of a cause they have the potential to make a real contribution to climate action. We are individually assessing them all. If you have any information which will help us in this task please contact us using the contact form. Once assessed Independent candidates will fall into one of these three categories: GREEN: Any independent candidate with a green light has been assessed as absolutely committed to real action on climate. We will advise to number them first on your ballot paper before the orange or red candidates. ORANGE: Any independent candidate with an orange light has been assessed as having some commitment to action on climate but with some question marks. If they are an incumbent for instance, their voting record on climate action may have been mixed. Single issue independents may be assessed as orange because they run the risk putting their single issue ahead of climate for pragmatic reasons. We will advise to number them before the red candidates and after the green candidates. RED: We have identified red light Red light independents as a dangerous choice if Australians want real action on the climate emergency.They may be former members of a red light party. They may have ignored our efforts to assess them. They may have nominated so late in the process that effective assessment was impossible. We will advise to number these candidates last on your ballot paper.

The Liberal National Party Coalition
The Liberal National Party Coalition is comprised of The Liberal Party of Australia and the National Party. Members of political parties invariably vote on party lines whatever their personal opinion may be on a particular parliamentary decision. All Liberal National Party Coalition candidates are a dangerous prospect considering the urgent need for national leadership on the climate emergency. Number them last on your ballot paper after the green or orange candidates.

Animal Justice Party
We have ranked the Animal Justice Party as GREEN for the NSW State Election. They have a strong climate policy.
The imperative is for urgent action now to protect what we can, stop the emission of greenhouse gases, and accelerate ecological regeneration for climate protection.
