To keep global warming below 1.5°C, coal, oil & gas needs to stay in the ground.
In October 2018 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released its special report into our global efforts to keep warming below 1.5°C. The report was a wake-up call to the world that the window for avoiding runaway climate change is closing — fast.
To have any chance of staying under 1.5°C we have to stop digging up coal, oil and gas. That means projects like the Adani coal mine and fracking gas developments in the Northern Territory.
That’s why we are working together on an ongoing action, hand delivering the 1.5℃ report straight to our politicians. To make them aware of the consequences facing us all and ask them to fix the current federal inaction on climate change.
Will you take action and deliver the 1.5°C report to your local MP or Senator? We will provide everything you need.
