Be part of the Monster Climate Petition

The Monster Climate Petition is a petition by Australians to our federal House of Representatives asking for strong leadership and action that significantly reduces carbon emissions. It reminds all our politicians that it is ‘the fundamental duty of parliament to protect Australia’s people, land and seas’ and calls on them to make climate policy and action a bi-partisan national priority, rather than a political football. 

Petitions to the House or Representatives require original pen and ink signatures. Signatures will be collected throughout August, September and October until just before the G20 meeting in Brisbane in mid-November and we intend to publicise the petition at that event. We will then present the Petition to Parliament in the last 2 sitting weeks of 2014.  

All signed petitions need to be mailed to The Victorian Women’s Trust, Level 9/313 La Trobe St, Melbourne 3000 by 8 November 2014.
