What Is The Monster Climate Petition?
A petition by Australians to the House of Representatives demanding immediate and effective action to significantly reduce carbon emissions. The petition wording is
“We ask the House to respect the science and build a safe climate future for our children and grandchildren and generations to come by enacting immediate and deep reductions to Australia’s carbon emissions. We also ask the House to commit to and actively promote and support global strategies for immediate and deep reductions to global emissions at every designated international forum.”
Original, pen and ink signatures will be collected in time for the G20 in Brisbane 14-15 November. These signatures will demonstrate to the world that many Australians want effective action on reducing carbon emissions.
The Monster Petition will then be presented to our national Parliament in late November 2014.
We need a truly MONSTER petition, with hundreds of thousands of signatures. The need for action is urgent.
The petition is being managed by the Victorian Womens Trust.
