Like the flood waters and flames, we rise up 🌊🔥
Across the continent, our communities have faced a summer of devastating climate impacts, from life threatening cyclones, floods and fires to sweltering heat waves. Yet fossil fuel companies are fuelling the flames of the crisis, pushing ahead with risky coal and gas.
Despite being elected in a historic wave of support for climate action, the Albanese government has fundamentally failed in the number one test of climate leadership: saying NO to more coal and gas projects.
Brisbane/Meanjin will you Rise Up? On Thursday 2 May join us at King George Square to say 📣 Labor: keep us safe – no more coal and gas! 📣
With an upcoming Federal Budget deciding what gets funding, and a looming deadline for Labor to fix our environment laws so they consider the impacts of climate change, right now is a crucial moment to rise up and make our demands loud and clear: ❌ no approvals or handouts for coal and gas ❌
What: A show of people-power in the middle of Brisbane city as part of a national 12 days of action, with inspiring speakers and actions to ramp up the pressure on Treasurer Jim Chalmers.
When: Thursday 2 May at 11:30 am
Where: King George Square, Brisbane/Meanjin, Queensland
Who: Everyone of all ages and backgrounds who wants climate justice now
