CHOOSE NATURE
Call on your political leaders to protect nature.
URGENT: Nature laws weakened!
On the 26th of March, the Government rushed through legislation that further weakens nature laws in order to allow the continuation of an unsustainable industry. This sets a dangerous precedent and is another example of why we need to speak up for nature now.
Your voice matters. Now is a critical time to call on your leaders to Choose Nature.
Nature is the foundation of our lives—our health, economy and future depend on it, yet it is under threat like never before. Australian nature urgently needs your voice. Send a message to your political leaders now, asking them to choose nature to secure a thriving future for all. Our nature laws are failing, and the government spends just 0.1% of the budget to regenerate threatened species and their habitats. Climate change is reshaping our lives with dangerous consequences for people and nature. Our economic systems are putting profits over nature. Our oceans are warming, and mass coral bleaching events are increasingly common. It’s time to Choose Nature.
Upcoming elections are a key time for leaders to make policy commitments that shape our future. You can help make sure nature is high on the policy agenda.
Send a message to your representatives and ask them to Choose Nature.
Why your voice matters
Now is the time when politicians are committing to and communicating their policies.
Every email they receive sends a message to our leaders: Australians want bold action for nature.
Together, we can demand a future where our wildlife, forests, and oceans are protected for generations to come.

Our Key Policy Asks
Choose Nature: what we’re asking our leaders to do
Invest 1% of the budget into nature to repair and recover Australia’s unique wildlife
Australia spends less than 0.1% of its budget protecting our unique and fragile natural environment. This is far below what’s needed to halt and reverse nature loss.
Fix nature laws to stop deforestation and habitat destruction
Australia’s nature laws are failing to protect our wildlife and critical reforms have stalled in parliament. This means precious species like the greater glider and koala continue to be at risk of extinction.
Protect our oceans and marine life
Our oceans are in peril. WWF-Australia is calling for strong measures to safeguard marine habitats and create safe pathways for wildlife. A healthy ocean supports people, nature, and the planet, and it's time for Australia to play a leadership role in ocean conservation.
Build an economy that protects nature
Australia’s economic systems are driving the destruction of nature. Achieving a nature-positive economy is not an option but a necessity. The next Australian Government must address the economic drivers of nature loss and reform the economic rules of the game.
Replace fossil fuels with renewables
Climate change is moving faster than we are, with dangerous consequences for nature and people. 2024 was the hottest year on record—we need to take urgent action. WWF-Australia is urging the government to stop approving new coal, oil, and gas projects and rapidly shift to renewable energy.
