Right now, the government is deciding how to spend billions in public money to help with the Covid-19 crisis. It's a critical opportunity for them to fund our future, by creating jobs that will Care for Country, fast-track solutions to climate change, and transition Australia to renewable energy.
​
Instead, secret plans have revealed that the Federal Government is planning to give billions to their mates in the dirty gas industry. Gas is a dangerous fossil fuel that will turbocharge the climate crisis. Even worse, many destructive gas projects threaten First Nations lands.
​
This is why on Friday September 25th, along with hundreds of others around QLD, the Australian Youth Climate Coalition (Townsville) will be setting up a stall on the Strand to have conversations about the dangerous reality of gas & the benefits of a Renewable lead recovery! We invite the public come & help paint messages/ pictures onto rocks & place them at different locations around Townsville to spread our message. This is a fun little activity that will show the Government that we want to #FundOurFutureNotGas!
