XR DEMANDS
Tell the Truth: Government tell the truth about the climate and ecological crisis we are facing and declare a climate emergency.
Act Now: Government immediately adopt a radical emissions reduction target, one that will transition Victoria to a net-zero emissions economy by 2025, in line with a global red-line of 1.5°C of global heating.
Beyond Politics: Government must create and be led by decisions of a Citizens’ Assembly on climate and ecological justice.
