We believe this is a really good visible, positive, clear, and non-partisan action which all Australians can do to demonstrate to politicians from all political parties that there is a groundswell of ordinary people across the country from all political persuasions and walks of life who want action and leadership on climate change.
Why yellow? It’s the colour of bumper crops, hope for the future, #canariesinthecoalmine, of solar energy!
“Let’s paint something yellow, display something yellow, on our houses, on our cars, on ourselves to show Australians want climate action. Paint your letter box yellow or put a yellow ribbon on your fence, put a yellow sticker on your car – be creative. Share what you’ve done, ask your friends and neighbours to do it too and together let’s show our true colours on climate action.”
Ideas for everyone:
- Order a #showourcolours themed Farmers for Climate Action farmgate sign (and display it when it arrives)
- Update your profile pic on Facebook and Twitter with this Twibbon that will frame your photo yellow
- Share messages of support, yellow images on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter using the hashtag #showourcolours (you can also use #canariesinthecoalmine)
The next level:
- Paint something yellow/ display something yellow to show you care about climate change: A wall, a shed, on fire-damaged property, your letterbox, a sign in your front yard – be bold and creative! Most importantly, make sure your sign can be easily seen.
- Write “We want climate action” to make your yellow sign really stand out.
- Film it and photograph it – have someone video you next to your sign while you also say why you’re doing it, or make it a selfie video. Take some photos too.
- Share it – get it out on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. Also, email us at [email protected] and we can put it up on our social media. Ask your friends to make their own sign but also to share your post far and wide. Make sure you use #showourcolours (you can also use #canariesinthecoalmine)
Say who you are, wear who you are, scream it to the world! Nothing defines your perfect outfit better than the right accessory ❤️ get your socks to show your personality 🎉 thank you for the inspirational words rachelzoe #speakout #beyourself #enjoylife #showourcolours #sockslover #collegien_women

Last week we went up to get our coffee at Killibinbin, Kerri said did you hear Richard passed away suddenly ..... it was such a shock it was a time when you just wanted to hug someone .... we weren`t really close, but we were friends, we were neighbours just down around the corner, but we have known Richard & Barbara since we arrived in Broulee, Richard & Barbara supported me through my gallery way back then, it had become practise now for Lil & I to have many an accidental meeting with Richard along the pathways or while we sat at our morning community hub Killibinbin, Richard like me would love to tell stories, he was so interesting though, he talked about the world, he cared about things, I always thought he`s a really clever man but he was humble in his talking, I liked that we could listen for so long and often we did .....
This could not have happened at a worse time, but thanks to Richard & Barbs friends we could all sit at home and live stream a celebration of Richards life, he was a husband, a father and grandfather we learnt a lot yesterday, it was so nice to see my Galay`s larrakitj from Buku at the service amongst those things he treasured those reminders of his life ...... and then a most wonderful thing happened the service finished and our community momentarily came out of isolation, we came outside, we lined the streets with the greatest respect, we all kept our distancing but as Richard was driven by we could all pay our respect to this wonderful man ..... it was at that moment that I felt good, good that we belong to a community that cares .... one day we will have our hugs and hold each other tight that will be nice 🖤❤️ #broulee #southcoastnsw #eurobodalla #cafekillibinbin bukuartnow gmutt #showourcolours

Get involved and get crafty. We Want Climate Action is a great initiative from farmersforclimateaction #showourcolours is a national campaign for everyone to get involved. With a yellow sign express your desire for climate action and display it on your social media, letter box, front gate, on your clothes or anywhere else you think of and #showourcolours 🌱💚
Lets show our so called leaders they can not pull the wool over our eyes, we are not selfish or small minded- we want real #climateaction 💯
I’m really excited about this initiative after seeing the power of the #votetonyout campaign when we ousted Tony Abbott from his seat in #warringah . It builds awareness, unites and generates conversation.
Thank goodness for zalisteggall who is demanding climate action for us all- lets support her and our farming friends #showourcolours. .... please use recycled materials. 🌱💚👍🏻 #letsdothisaustralia #wecandoit #wewantclimateaction #nocoal #nogas #nooil #renewables #stopadani #rehydratethelandscape #farmersforclimateaction #australiaunites #wecandothis #powertothepeople #northernbeaches #farmersforclimateaction
I am joining in solidarity with the Farmers for Climate Action: #showourcolours campaign - and hoping many of you will too!
I’ve just ordered my #showourcolours themed Farmers for Climate Action farmgate sign via the link in the bio. "We believe this is a really good visible, positive, clear, and non-partisan action which all Australians can do to demonstrate to politicians from all political parties that there is a groundswell of ordinary people across the country from all political persuasions and walks of life who want action and leadership on climate change.

“Australians want climate action. We’ve had time to reflect on the mistakes of the past. Let’s set a new direction and have a sustainable and safer future for everyone.” - Brett Hall, FCA Board Director #farmersforclimateaction #showourcolours #climateactionnow #aussiefarmers #australianag
"As a horse breeder, I have always discounted myself from discussions about farming, but horses are livestock too. We are faced with the same water and feed dilemmas as everyone else, but in a way it is harder for us to adapt. Horses have a long breeding cycle, and they are harder to offload when times get tough. Planning is long, long term. Just like everyone else, our ability to deal with the challenges brought about by climate change will be improved by policy that accepts the science, and provides us with information and encouragement to adopt farming practices and technology that enables us to mitigate, lower the rate of warming and the risk of an unliveable world, and adapt." - Dodie Henderson, Esperance farmer.
So many farmers and rural Australians are standing together to #showourcolours for practical climate solutions. How will you show your support? www.farmersforclimateaction.org.au/showourcolours #farmingforever #farmersforclimateaction #climateaction
Standby for ‘non-making-related’ post or scroll on by... recently there was a ridiculous opinion piece by a certain prominent NSW politician suggesting that rural people had no free thought regarding sustainable energy, management of our National Parks or climate change and that we were being remotely manipulated by guilt-ridden city folk - basically an insult to us all. In response to that and also in support of the bi-partisan #farmersforclimateaction I printed these vinyl static clings. PM me if you`d like one and you too can find a good place to stick it. #farmersforclimateaction #showourcolours
Rob Miller, fifth generation dairy farmer from NSW south coast, knows first hand the impacts of climate change. He`s showing his support for climate action and wants you to stand with him to #showourcolours for climate. "Since Christmas I`ve had four bushfires rip through my dairy farm. It`s been really devastating. "But I`ve got an idea for how ordinary Australians can show we want Australia to step up and lead on climate action. "Let`s paint something yellow, display something yellow, on our houses, on our cars, on ourselves to show Australians want climate action. Paint your letter box yellow or put a yellow ribbon on your fence, put a yellow sticker on your car – be creative. "Share what you`ve done, ask your friends and neighbours to do it too and together let`s show our true colours on climate action." We think it`s a great idea! How will you show your colours to support Rob and other rural Australians on the frontlines of climate change? #showourcolours

✊✍🏼🎨#fridayforfuture Action: #showourcolours and write your MP. Tomorrow it’s Friday again 🤗 This is an image of two letters we (Sarah and Zoë, 39 and 2 yrs) made for our MP’s here at the Gold Coast. The yellow corroboree frog fitted the #showourcolours yellow theme well, also because they were evacuated from bushfire areas. It was a fun and uplifting activity for me and my daughter despite the heavy message. 🔸AP4CA Eurobodalla organiser and NSW South Coast GP Dr Michelle Hamrosi is calling for us to #showourcolours.
In a moving video, she recounts her experience of living the ongoing bushfire emergency. It`s an emergency that continues, with high fire danger across the region forcing the closure of schools and businesses today. Video: https://m.facebook.com/ap4ca/posts/2679500485451129 📣 She asks that you join the call, regardless of political affiliations.
To take part, paint something yellow, include a climate action message, then share it on social media using the hashtags: #ShowOurColours and #ClimateActionNow #corroboreefrog #australianwildlife #frogsandtoads #threatenedspecies #mailthatmatters #amphibians #amphibiansofaustralia karenandrewsmp angiebell.mp

We’re so thrilled at the positive response to #showourcolours! Our Twitter, Instagram and Facebook feeds are full with people showing their support for rural Australians who are on the frontlines of climate change. Here’s a pic shared by Twitter user Schtang from Gunnedah. How will you show your colours? We’ve prepared some ideas in the comments 💛😊🌞🌾✨
Two weeks ago we shared a video of Milton farmer Rob Miller painting his farm gate yellow. At that stage, Rob had faced three years of drought and four fires since Christmas. After we posted that video, Rob has also experienced flooding rains.
Join Rob in showing your support for climate action through the #ShowOurColours campaign. Follow the links in our bio for more information 🌞🌾🌻 💛#CanariesInTheCoalMine #farmingforever #climateaction #climatesmartagriculture #floods #rain #farmer
