Communities and councils for Climate Compensation
Thursday 23 July, 3-4pm AEST | 2:30-3:30pm ACST | 1-2pm AWST Join Climate Emergency Australia and Communities for Climate Compensation for a webinar to find out how your council can join the call for a Climate Compensation Fund to help Australian communities cope with climate impacts. When unnatural disasters hit, councils are left to repair roads, rebuild community facilities and keep people safe. The Communities for Climate Compensation network is a growing network of councils and community run campaigns building support for sustainable, increased funding for councils and communities. Imagine if the billion-dollar corporations whose pollution contributed to the damage actually paid their fair share to fix it. Imagine local councils having guaranteed funding for disaster recovery and climate resilience. Find out how you and your council can work with the community to build support, evidence and pressure in your role as a council staff member or councillor. Find out more and register |
