Email the Prime Minister Julia Gillard (using the easy form below) and let her know that you care about action on climate change.

Points you could make in your e-mail:

• I know a global agreement is necessary to address climate change. I am therefore disappointed your Government has stated it “will do no more and no less” than other countries.
• It is in Australia’s best interests to reduce global greenhouse gas emissions. Professor Garnaut said because of the structure of our economy, “our terms of trade would be damaged more by the effects of climate change than would those of any other developed country.” However, people in developing countries who are already poor stand to lose even more.
• As the country with the highest greenhouse gas emissions per person, we need to play a leading role in reducing our emissions and assisting developing countries who have not caused the problem they now face.
• I want Australia to take a lead, not simply follow the pack.
