Global Day for Climate Justice – Sydney

As people rally and strike all over the world to demand climate action on Friday 29th November, join the Sydney rally in solidarity with the global fight for climate justice, and demanding a just climate transition here and now.

Climate change is rapidly accelerating. Summer hasn’t even started and we’ve seen the worst beginning to a fire season in recorded history. 97% of NSW is in drought and large areas of rural NSW are in severe water crisis, leaving many people without clean drinking water, due to climate change and compounded by water mismanagement and corruption.

But not only do the Liberals have no climate policy, they are ramping up reckless climate vandalism. They are attempting to extend the life of the Liddell coal power to entrench domestic energy reliance on coal power stations. Both federal and state governments are pushing for new fossil fuel projects including the Adani mine, new mines across NSW, fracking projects and offshore gas. And they are cracking down on climate activists using rhetoric, police repression, and anti-protest legislation.

Join the rally to demand:
* Global indigenous justice – land and water sovereignty.
* No new sources of coal, gas, oil or uranium and no Adani
* 100% publicly owned renewable energy by 2030
* A just transition & job guarantee for climate jobs with the right to strike
