Target: Liberal government
Region: Australia

Petition Background (Preamble):

The climate is changing and we need to be aware of what is going to happen in our future and find ways to prevent it because it's not a case of If it happens but When it happens.

More floods are predicted, intense storms, heat waves and storms. A rise of 1.4 to 5.8 degrees Celsius is expected throughout the globe in the next 100 years.

John Howard has refused to sign up to Kyoto untill all the other countries do. Reports show that if we don’t act now, the world will face a depression worse than that of 1930.

We do need to act now, we need Australia to cut its greenhouse gas emissions and we need to do this by signing on to Kyoto.

Petition:

We, the people of Australia, petition the Liberal government to sign the Kyoto agreement to reduce greenhouse emissions and prevent further climate change.
