Australia needs a Clean Recovery Plan!

Australia is facing an unemployment crisis, with 1 in 4 of us unable to find reliable work. But at the same time, there has never been more work to do to protect our planet and communities from climate change.

There’s a common-sense solution. Investing now in clean energy and climate-friendly projects could create hundreds of thousands of future-proof jobs and make Australia a clean energy superpower.

But Morrison’s being held back by a handful of climate denialists in his party room.

That’s why we’re coming together to make sure Morrison hears loud and clear from people all across Australia that we want a Clean Recovery now.

People across the country are putting their hand up to be Petition Partners, who will collect petition signatures for a Clean Recovery in our communities during the month of November. We’d love for you to join us!

You’ll create your own petition for a Clean Recovery, but it will be connected to the larger national petition so the signatures you collect go towards our national petition.

No matter how much time you can give to helping, whether it’s collecting signatures at your workplace or school, or simply sending your petition to friends online, your contribution matters.

We're done with 2020's bad news. It's time for something good.

To get started, simply hit 'start a campaign'.

  • Higgins wants a Clean Recovery Now!
    http://cdn.getup.org.au/image_21147_full.png Australia can be a clean energy superpower, creating future-proof jobs in work that improves our lives. We need to make sure we don't miss out on this opportunity to power our recovery with sun, wind, and waves. We can create jobs restoring the green spaces we love, like Gardiner Creek. We can harness the sun to power our businesses and homes with cheap solar energy. We can stay cooler in sweltering Melbourne summers and save on air-conditioning bills by retrofitting homes to be more energy efficient. Will you join the call for clean, affordable energy and climate-friendly jobs?

  • Adelaide wants a Clean Recovery now!
    Here in Adelaide, we have so many opportunities to create jobs in work caring for our planet, while making our lives more affordable. We can create jobs bringing local ecosystems back to life, such as restoring the sand dunes around Holdfast Bay, or protecting our native Grey Box Woodland from invasive species. We can create jobs planting trees and installing better shading to keep us cool on Adelaide’s streets, where bitumen and concrete absorb and reflect the sun’s heat making them unbearable on a hot summer's day. And with our sunshine, we can lower power prices for our businesses and homes with solar. If we work together to get the recovery right, we have a bright future ahead.
