The government knows climate disasters are escalating - but today Labor announced a target of 62-70% by 2035. It’s weak, it’s dangerous, and it’s nowhere near what the science demands. #auspol #climatejustice

The climate impacts report is out. The only thing certain from this report is that heatwaves, major impacts to nature, and displacement due to sea level rise will become more widespread. Meanwhile, Advance is pushing to scrap net zero. #auspol #climatejustice

It's official – fossil fuel corporations have been directly linked to deadly heatwaves happening around the globe. But these corporations are still taking no responsibility for the climate disaster they're causing, often paying little or no tax. It's time to Make Polluters Pay.

Children are starving in Gaza. Aid is being blocked. Civilians are being killed. It’s time for Australia to act – not just with words, but with consequences. Australia must sanction Israel, recognise Palestine, halt weapon exports, and demand a permanent ceasefire.

The government is finally cracking down on dangerous childcare centres — proposing to give regulators power to strip funding when safety standards are breached. But here’s the problem: The profit-led system that allowed these failures to happen remains untouched.

Breaking: Labor just announced its intent to approve Woodside’s gas expansion. Environment Minister Murray Watt has given Woodside 10 days to respond but all signs point to final approval — a move that would make this Labor’s first major climate decision of their second term.

We’re not staying quiet. We'll only get louder. Over 6,000 people have now called on Environment Minister Murray Watt and Labor to reject Woodside’s plan to keep drilling for gas until 2070.

Close to 4,000 have already emailed Environment Minister Murray Watt, calling on him to stop Woodside’s plan to drill for gas until 2070. These are real messages, from real people, speaking from the heart about climate, about Country, and about the future we want to protect.

Right now, communities on the NSW coast are underwater while others across the country are deep in drought. Emergency crews have scrambled to rescue people trapped by floodwaters while parts of SA, Victoria, WA and Tasmania face some of the driest conditions on record.

PM Albanese just announced his new cabinet. The real test begins now: will this government act on the big issues or keep playing it safe? From cost of living to climate and truth-telling, these are just some of the urgent fights this new cabinet can’t ignore.

GetUp Australia @getup.org.au · 07/05/2025
This election, voters sent a powerful message: people across the country want action on housing, healthcare and climate – not fear & division. Now the hard work begins: holding the Albanese Government account and making sure the government delivers for all of us. Let's do this.

Peter Dutton has zero meaningful policy reforms – just a plan to cut support, undermine First Nations leadership, and revive failed, punitive policies. We can’t let Dutton drag us backwards. Authorised by D. Loasby, GetUp, 52 Reservoir St, Sydney

This is how Peter Dutton dodges basic questions from journalists. Imagine what he'd dodge as Prime Minister... Let's this be our reminder: On 3 May, let's choose leadership that faces up to the big questions — not runs from them. See bit.ly/GetUpAuthorisation for more info

Peter Dutton won't lift a finger for families escaping bombs, hunger and displacement. But he says he’d welcome a man accused of war crimes with open arms, even if it means defying international law. See bit.ly/GetUpAuthorisation for more info

If Dutton — a property investor himself — won’t even help out his own son, what hope is there for the rest of us if he’s elected? Thousands of people are locked out of the market, doing everything right, and still falling behind. Authorised by D. Loasby, GetUp, 52 Reservoir St, Sydney

Dutton has never held a hose or a climate policy – he’s Australia’s climate-destroyer-in-chief. And now, Shadow Energy Minister Ted O'Brien has confirmed a Coalition govt is open to abandoning the Paris climate agreement. Authorised by D Loasby. GetUp, 52 Reservoir St, Sydney.

No matter our postcode, bank balance or skin colour - everyone should be able to see a doctor & access affordable medicine when we need to. Skyrocketing medical costs in the US are a stark reminder of just how important Medicare & the PBS are for protecting accessible healthcare here at home.
