Everyday people are paying the price of climate change through increasing insurance bills, high food prices, and huge recovery costs from more severe storms, drought, bushfires and floods.  

Climate disasters are now costing $38 billion per year in Australia. That’s $3800 per household, per year on average. In the Pacific, the costs are far worse as the frequency of severe climate disasters escalates. 

Meanwhile big coal, oil and gas corporations, who are responsible for 76% of Australia’s climate pollution, are taking billions in government handouts, sending profits overseas and often pay less tax in Australia than our teachers ...

Everyday people are paying the price of climate change through increasing insurance bills, high food prices, and huge recovery costs from more severe storms, drought, bushfires and floods.  

Climate disasters are now costing $38 billion per year in Australia. That’s $3800 per household, per year on average. In the Pacific, the costs are far worse as the frequency of severe climate disasters escalates. 

Meanwhile big coal, oil and gas corporations, who are responsible for 76% of Australia’s climate pollution, are taking billions in government handouts, sending profits overseas and often pay less tax in Australia than our teachers or nurses.  

Despite making billions, these big corporations are paying nothing to support communities impacted by their climate pollution and by climate disasters. 

Join us in demanding the government hold big corporations to account and ensure they pay their fair share for the costs of climate change.  Demand that funds raised go into a Climate Compensation Fund for communities impacted by climate disasters, and to help with offsetting rising household costs, especially for those living in poverty. 

Together, let’s make big polluters pay

Tell the Climate Change Minister Chris Bowen to make polluting corporations pay their fair share for the costs of climate change. Funds from a Climate Pollution Levy must go into a Climate Compensation Fund for communities.
