Real climate leadership comes from the grassroots up.<\/strong><\/p>\n

On September 8, 350 Australia is helping organise rallies in cities and towns around Australia to demand our local leaders commit to building a fossil free world that puts people and justice before profit. No more stalling, no more delays: it\u2019s time for a fast and fair transition to 100% renewable energy for all.<\/p>\n

350 Perth<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is just one of the groups that will be rising for climate action and calling for change from local leaders.<\/p>\n

Franca Gilissen from 350 Perth says the city will be rising because climate change is\u00a0happening right now.<\/p>\n

“It is a serious and urgent problem, but not everyone realises this. We worry about future generations,” she explains.<\/p>\n

“We need to make our leaders realise that action is needed right now and that the people expect their leaders to act responsibly.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

350 Perth will be rallying at Russell Square, in the city centre of Perth. The team are organising music, interesting speakers and likeminded people all committed to a just transition away from fossil fuels to 100% renewable energy for all.<\/p>\n

At the rally, the group will be asking local leaders to commit to building a sustainable, future proof city; developing a\u00a0heatwave protection program for the homeless; and divesting from fossil fuels.<\/p>\n

This event will be a launchpad for people who attend to get in touch with their own local councils, to discuss how local leadership can take climate action.<\/p>\n\"\"<\/a>\n
