NSW is not on track to meet our emissions reductions targets! We’re in serious trouble and we need the Government to wake up and act now. 

When they came to power, the Labor Government introduced climate laws in NSW but they set weak emissions reductions targets. We are supposed to cut our emissions by 50% by 2030 and the only legally binding target is net zero by 2050. That is too little too late, and will lock us in for catastrophic warming of more than 3 degrees celsius. 

Shockingly, we aren’t on track to cut our emissions by 50% by 2030. 

Rather than respond with an accelerated plan to decarbonise, Labor Premier Chris Minns is approving and backing more coal and gas like there’s no tomorrow. 

We need the Premier to issue an urgent directive to his Ministers to make sure emissions start coming down rapidly. 

Don’t be fooled by their net zero culture wars - right now in Australia, domestic emissions are higher under Labor than they were when Scott Morrison left office. 

We’re really heading in the wrong direction. 

We all need to do whatever we can to reduce our impact on the warming climate, but the Government holds the key to our success or our failure. 

Join us and call on the Government to do more and to meet and beat our emissions reductions targets. 

Call on Labor Premier Chris Minns to:

• Issue an urgent directive instructing all Government Ministers to go further and faster to get NSW on track to meet our 2030 emissions reductions target. 

And we need the Labor Government to: 

• Put an immediate moratorium on new coal and gas approvals
• Transition communities away from coal and gas by 2030
• End public native forest logging immediately
• Regenerate and reforest our landscapes 
• Get us to net zero by 2035

Labor’s legislated climate targets are useless if we’re not doing more to meet them. We’re running out of time to make our governments take the climate crisis seriously. 

Every bit of pressure matters. Start by sending this email telling the NSW Government that you will not wait, that we need climate action now and we need them to do more to protect us and the planet.
