Farmers for Climate Action is committed to building support for climate action from our political leaders. 

We are running an open letter during the Eden-Monaro by-election to demonstrate the strong support for climate action from farmers.

If you’re a farmer in Eden-Monaro and are interested in adding your name to the open letter, please put your details below. 

To the candidates,

 

We call on all of the candidates contesting the Eden-Monaro by-election to commit to climate solutions and, if elected, advocate for meaningful climate policy.

 

Over summer, we experienced first hand the impacts of climate change when faced with the most devastating bushfires in living memory. We can’t afford to ignore climate change any longer. 

 

We need a Member of Parliament who is part of the climate solution. We need someone representing us who will be a champion for the new jobs, the new industries and the new investment that will flow  to our region as a result of acting on climate change.

 

Let’s get on with it. 

Signed.

Thank you for joining the open letter. We appreciate you taking the time to sign on.

 

While this letter is for our farmer supporters, there are still ways you can be involved. If you know any farmers, you can send the open letter to them to sign.

 

Likewise, please feel free to get in touch with all the candidates contesting the Eden-Monaro by-election and let them know you support climate action.
