You are invited to join us at your ACF-AWR planning meeting for 2025. We would love to have your thoughts and ideas!
When: 15 February 2024, 2.00 pm – 4.00 pm
Where: Hyphen, Meeting Room 1, 126 Hovell St, Wodonga, VIC, 3690 and Online (hybrid event)
The purpose of the meeting is to plan your group’s focus for the year ahead and particularly the coming Federal election.
As ACF Australia notes on their Community Hub: As we hit the halfway mark of this critical decade for solving the climate and extinction crisis, we must harness all of our power to engage the wider community and demand our next Parliament acts urgently.
ACF have a number of resources on their Community Hub including their National Agenda For Australia’s Nature and Climate that lays out exactly what the next parliament must do to the solve the dual climate and extinction crisis:
- Protect nature: Stop the bulldozing of the bush
- Say yes to renewable energy: Power everything we can with clean, cheap energy from wind and sun.
- Say no to nuclear: Australia’s future is renewable, not radioactive
- Say no to new coal and gas: No more green lights for big, climate-wrecking coal and gas polluters
The National Agenda provides a summary of the issues and a clear action plan to address them that we hope community and Parliament will get behind.
Other actions you can take:
- Let candidates know you care and will vote for nature and climate. You can take this pledge, which will notify your sitting MP that you have committed to voting for nature and climate.
- You can also use the community pulse as a tool for deep persuasive conversations and ask people to pledge to vote for nature and climate at stalls and events.
- Share the pledge and the community pulse tool with your networks.
For those wishing to join us after the meeting for a chat with like-minded people, head to Elgins, 51 – 53 Elgin Boulevard, Wodonga.
