Showcasing innovative australian approaches to carbon emissions reduction
We’re thinking globally, acting locally.
Inaction will be costly and deadly.
Climate Action Australia is an independent community of caring and pragmatic individuals and businesses. We are cutting our carbon emissions to reduce climate change impacts — for the safety and wellbeing of future generations and of all life on Earth.
We act on, and share, trustworthy evidence, and helpful resources.
We work together to amplify our collective voice and impact.
Our mission
Educate
We are a trusted source of accurate information on climate change and on the reduction of Australia’s carbon emissions through funding and adoption of innovative technologies.
Showcase
We showcase innovative Australian and international technologies that reduce carbon emissions.
Act
We move quickly and effectively to reduce carbon emissions at home, at work, in our local communities and nationally.
"Climate Change is accelerating. It threatens our well being, our security, and our economic development. It will lead to uncontrollable risks and dramatic damage if we do not take resolute countermeasures"
Angela Merkel
Chancellor of Germany
Why Australia needs climate action now
The debate is done
Multiple reports document irrefutable proof of climate change, further supported by increasingly erratic and extreme weather events around the globe. We must reduce emissions — further debate or denial only creates potentially life-threatening delays.
Time is running out
We are rapidly running out of time to minimise further climate change impacts. Some scientists believe that climate tipping points may be fast-approaching and could topple like dominoes, leading to severe consequences for all life on Earth.
We must hit the targets
Australians (and many others) are not cutting emissions quickly enough. We must take personal and professional action, now.
We have the power
Australia is a leader in many clean technologies, such as solar power and building renewable energy. We can rapidly reduce our carbon footprint by fostering such innovations and encouraging other countries to do the same.
To avoid catastrophic impacts, including the total destruction of the Great Barrier Reef.
The cost of inaction is too great
We are already witnessing the impacts of global warming — worsening bush fire seasons, and more frequent coral bleaching, droughts and storms. As we lose lives and livelihoods, natural resources, biodiversity and beauty, we are eroding our children’s hopes for a safe, healthy and happy future.
How can you make a difference?
