We aim to help create a world much less reliant on fossil fuels, particularly coal, heading off the greatest catastrophe now facing humanity: global warming.
To reduce greenhouse gas emissions locally and nationally by providing governments and the public with the means and the motive to take the necessary action.
To inform people about the dangers of climate change, to speak out against the ongoing use of fossil fuels, and to champion the growth and development of renewable energy sources.
We are not aligned to any political party*.
We are firmly grounded in our local community.
We value building strong relationships within our community and with other like-minded groups around Australia.
We will engage ethically and positively in the political process to achieve change.
While Climate Change Balmain-Rozelle is outspoken on all aspects of climate change action, and seeks to influence political thinking as well as public opinion, we are very conscientiously independent of all political parties. So we don't endorse any individual candidate - even an independent - as to do so would put us into the position of backing one candidate against another, as distinct from backing one policy over another.
In previous elections, for example, we have provided information that compares the climate policies of each candidate, but stops short of recommending one over another.
