Defend Renewables: Yes 2 Renewables info night

August 29, 2016

WANT TO DEFEND SOUTH AUSTRALIA’s RENEWABLE ENERGY LEADERSHIP?…

JOIN US ON TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 13 TO FIND OUT HOW YOU CAN GET INVOLVED IN THIS CAMPAIGN TO SECURE JOBS, INVESTMENT, AND OUR CLIMATE:

6:30-8pm The Joinery 111 Franklin St Adelaide

The fossil fuel sector has mounted an aggressive attack South Australia’s renewable energy leadership in recent weeks. These interests are trying to undermine renewable energy’s reputation and intimidate states who are taking leadership, such as the ACT, Victoria, and South Australia.

The fossil fuel lobby will do anything to stop our transition to 100% renewables. They’re prepared to sacrifice South Australian jobs, investment in regional communities, and our climate to protect their own interests.

Yes 2 Renewables are ready to defend renewables… But we can’t do it alone.

Please join us for an informal campaign info night at The Joinery on Tuesday September 13. You’ll meet fellow community members who want to rollout renewables. Snacks and beverages will be available. And no prior knowledge is needed.

SPEAKERS:

Attendees will find out about our strategy to defend South Australia’s renewable energy leadership, secure jobs and investment, and ramp up action on climate change.

* Leigh Ewbank, Yes 2 Renewables national coordinator
* Special guests to be announced.

Please feel free to bring family, friends, and colleagues along.

Any further questions, email leigh.ewbank@foe.org.au

“Visit your MP training” at the Conservation Council

July 10, 2016

VISIT YOUR LOCAL POLITICIANS TO SPEAK WITH THEM IN PERSON ABOUT NUCLEAR WASTE DUMPS – THIS ACTION HAS THE GREATEST IMPACT OF ALL!

The action with the greatest impact is contacting your local MP to arrange an in-person meeting to share your concerns. You could also phone them or write them a hard copy letter to send in the mail. You can find your local MP contact details here. If you’re not sure which state electorate you are in, you can find out here.
We know some people are a bit shy about speaking to their MP. To make it easier, the Conservation Council can help. We are happy to talk through points to discuss with your local rep, invite you to come in and make the call from our phones or join us for one of our ‘Talking to your politicians about nuclear waste’ sessions:
There are 2 stand-alone sessions, they are on:

Monday 25 July: 6pm-8pm RSVP here

Tuesday 23 August 6pm-8pm RSVP here

Please RSVP to book your place.

A big thankyou to the Conservation Council of SA
