Exploring the opportunity we have been presented with from this exposition to move to more reliable, cleaner renewable energy in Australia.

If you would like to hear the rest of the Webinar you can go to YouTube and go to Doctors For the Environment Australia and go to the video: Quitting our Oil Dependency: Protecting our communities from global oil volatility for our health

You can also learn more about DEA through their website, dea.org.au, where you can also find an open letter to Australian governments urging them to break out dependance on global oil and chose a healthier future.

One of our Climate Action Show members, Antimony, ran into a few local activists outside of MP Sarah Witty’s office in Fitzroy, Melbourne, this last Friday, protesting Labour’s plan for coal and gas expansions. 

If you’re interested in getting involved they’ll be there every Friday, 12:30-1:30pm, and they love to have a coffee and chat about what they’re all about.
