We create political will for a liveable world. Good policy is the best way to solve climate change & a price on carbon is proven to be the most effective route.
Our solution to climate change: Democracy.
Good policy is the best way to solve climate change, and putting a price on carbon is repeatedly proven to be the most efficient route.

At our Parliamentary Friends of Climate Action Roundtable on Summer Preparedness, Bushfires & National Security, former Defence Chief Admiral Chris Barrie spelled out the scale of national security threat posed by global warming.
We must accelerate our climate response.

Great op ed @JohnRHewson 👏 A price on pollution PLUS returning the dividends to households is working (incl. politically) in Canada. It could work here too.
Make the polluters pay https://t.co/uOr8n9Wpht via @SatPaper
Bravo Tom Hunt 👏 A tireless @CCL_Aus campaigner on #climatedividend . Now also sailing his message in #Canberra & hoping '...a national apology will motivate politicians to take action.' https://t.co/ZGi4k5QzWK
Thanks @SophieScamps for meeting with Mackellar members this week to discuss #climatedividend - an essential policy solution for AU to meet its emissions reduction targets.
What can other countries learn from Canada’s carbon pricing policy? Former Minister for Climate @cathmckenna says: “Make it no longer free to pollute and give all the money back.” RU👂@bowenchris? https://t.co/OyrAKKRXBs
Did you notice yesterday's doodle on Google? It celebrated the 204th birthday of American scientist Eunice Newton Foote - the first person to discover the greenhouse effect and its role in the warming of Earth’s climate. See https://t.co/z6rRITdUPX
The fossil fuel industry desperately needs a predictably-rising carbon price to smooth their inevitable phase-down. It's just that most of them don't know it yet.

'...taxpayers are subsidising both carbon pollution (fossil fuel subsidies) & decarbonisation (clean energy incentives) at the same time'.
⏰Time to end this perversity and implement #ClimateDividends says @Rodmitch5 in our latest blog. https://t.co/ouk3N9SbHV
@JEChalmers While the #FederalBudget contains welcome temporary power bill relief and measures for some households and businesses to tap into renewables, it doesn’t meet the scale of the climate emergency Australia faces. #Auspol
Last week CCL WA members met with MP for Hasluck, Tania Lawrence for an exchange of ideas on the Safeguard Mechanism, electrification, community batteries & climate dividends.
Keen to meet MPs & Senators? Read our Lobby Playbooks for great info https://t.co/ffdQZGX4Gt
CCL members also meet with Senators too! It was a pleasure to meet WA @SenatorPayman last week to introduce the concept of Climate Dividends to her. She must have liked what she heard because we've been invited back!

Thanks @samlimmp for meeting with CCL Tangney members recently. A fruitful discussion on the Safeguard Mechanism, EVs & our key policy ask: Climate Dividend (carbon pricing with a dividend returned to households) #ClimateAction#climatedividend
How does our new EV strategy stack up? @ConversationEDU highlights what's good, what's missing & how it compares with other countries. https://t.co/JagZyG1Lvp
Great to see Australia finally has a national electric vehicle strategy, after years of lagging behind. Plenty still to be done and more details needed, but this is a positive step for reducing our transport emissions.

Call it by another name, but we now have an official price on carbon 👏 The Safeguard Mechanism is a relatively weak form of CO2 pricing but improvements make it more effective for emissions ⬇️. Read our blog from @Rodmitch5 https://t.co/wCH1Jrrjjb @bowenchris@jennymcallister
From the basics to the complex, our Playbooks detail the reasons why carbon pricing and climate dividend policies are urgently needed and how they could work. https://t.co/BQrp9Ah6UO
Thanks @ChaneyforCurtin for speaking to the Year 10 economics logic of #carbonpricing as the most efficient & effective market mechanism way to meet (and beat) our emissions reductions targets.
