Dear Friend,

This week, while PM Morrison was announcing plans to give billions in Covid-19 recovery funds to polluting gas, hundreds of us were getting organised for a tidal wave of actions on September 25th to say #FundOurFutureNotGas!

We’ve just tipped over 250 actions being organised in towns and suburbs across Australia. And there’s still a week to go! Don’t miss out, there’s still time!

Organising an action is easy and powerful! Because we’re living in a pandemic, it’s not about turning out big numbers. Instead it’s about the sheer number of actions of 10-20 people in small Covidsafe actions in every town, suburb, and community.

There are eight simple steps to organising an action:

  1. Register on the map: So politicians see how many actions are happening! Visit the Sept 25th webpage to register.
  2. Recruit your mates or colleagues: Recruit 10-20 of your mates to be a part of your action on September 25th.
  3. Ideally organise it for the morning: We want to get photos as early as possible to use them throughout the day.
  4. Choose somewhere eye-catching: Help your photo stand out by being at a local icon or somewhere interesting.
  5. Make a banner or placard: Fund Our Future Not Gas!
  6. Ideally wear yellow: To help show that we’re acting together.
  7. Send us your photo: We’ll flood social media with beautiful pictures. Visit the Sept 25th webpage to find our Photo/Video Guide.
  8. Ideally contact local media: We’ll flood local media with local stories. Visit the Sept 25th webpage to find our Local Media Guide.

For folks that are in lockdown, we are encouraging organising online actions and still following as many of the steps above as possible.

 And that’s it! Congratulations, you’ve organised an action for September 25th! Join the growing number of 250 actions and register your action today!

Here’s an awesome early action organised by nurses at a hospital in Sydney, standing in the emergency ward with a printed banner - your banner can be handmade!

PM Morrison’s gas plan is already being slammed in the media by people from all walks of life. But now we need to make sure that Morrison sees community members across the nation rejecting his plan and calling on him to #FundOurFutureNotGas!

Join us to make sure the government has to sit up, and pay attention.

See you on the streets on September 25th!

P.S We crunched the numbers (yes, we have been doing our math homework in between organising a wave of actions) and things are getting exponential!250 actions for Sept 25th, and still counting!
