To the Prime Minister

I am deeply concerned about the effects of climate change, both for myself and for the planet.

At a time when the world faces an economic crisis born out of motives for short term gain, we need our leaders to address the serious and long term risks of climate change.

Australia must act with an urgency equal to the growing threat to our ecology and our economy posed by climate change.

The best possible way for Australia to tackle climate change is to be part of an effective international agreement in December at the UN Climate Change Conference in Copenhagen.

The Government’s target of reducing emissions by 5 to 15% by 2020 is not enough to effectively tackle climate change.

You are responsible for Australia’s direction on this subject.

For the future of Australia and the planet, I ask you to support an emissions reduction target of at least 25% from 2000 levels as part of a global agreement to address the biggest threat our planet faces.

Yours sincerely
