Meet us in the front bar to raise a glass to a big year facing nuclear waste dump proposals. So much effort has been poured into challenging the State and Federal governments’ plans to build nuclear waste dumps in SA. Lets get together for an end of year celebration as we see the back of 2016, with legislation still in place that bans a nuclear waste dump in SA.
ALL WELCOME.
Food available to buy at the venue.
Please join us at the next Yes2Renewables meeting at the Joinery 111 Franklin St Adelaide at 6:30pm on Tuesday 13 December. For more information please contact adelaide.office@foe.org.au
Yes 2 Renewables: Adelaide Action Group Meeting
South Australia is a renewable energy success story. The state is fast approaching 50% renewables and has booming solar, energy storage, and wind power sectors.
This success has made South Australia public enemy #1 for the fossil fuel lobby, who will do anything to stop our transition to 100% renewables.
The Australian Youth Climate Coalition invite you to join them for an action outside the Westpac AGM at the Convention Centre on North Terrace at 9-10am Friday 9 December.
With Turnbull giving Adani a $1billion boost, it’s really important that we make sure out banks aren’t investing in the project, so we’re hoping to get a bit of a crowd there. Below is a bit of an outline of what the action will look like, hope to see you there!
Westpac are #climatehypocrites, and it’s time their shareholders knew it! Despite receiving awards for being “the world’s most sustainable bank”, and promising not to invest in projects that would take us over 2 degrees of global warming, Westpac has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in fossil fuels and refused to rule out investing in the Adani Carmichael coal mine in Queensland, putting our future at serious risk of dangerous global warming.
Join us for some street theatre on the morning of Westpac’s AGM, where we’ll be holding an award ceremony for the bank, with the award they really deserve, for being Australia’s biggest climate hypocrites. It’ll be a fun morning, and we’ll also be flyering and engaging with shareholders as they head into the AGM.
