Climate Action + Activism

"The crisis is in the present not in the future."  These are the words of Bill McKibben of 350. org spoken to the 'faithful' at the April 2012 Climate Summit.  Mass action is required in all parts of the globe if Governments are going to listen to the people and work faster towards reducing climate emissions. 

For our part, WarrandyteCAN aims to assemble knowledge and ideas that help direct you to leaders like Bill McKibben and many Australian leaders, and to inspire personal action. 

We recognise the need for positive and sometimes uncomfortable, unpleasant interaction with Government in order to advance change much more rapidly than is happening. 

We work with groups like 100% Renewable to help motivate our community so you can share in making change happen.

Libby Skeels (presented) and Jill Dixon attended the 2012 Climate Change Summit in Sydney April 27-29.  It was inspiring but also frightening.  We hope to report shortly on some of the news and speakers.

Check out our Objectives and our Current Plan.
