The Problem

  • The Lib/Labs will never take effective action on climate change or our other environmental problems.
  • 90% of the electorate vote against the Greens.

The Solution

Use Australia's three environmental parties to gather as many votes as possible at the next election.

Australia's preferential voting system means that the total vote for the Greens, NewAustralia and Democrats can be pooled to generate the highest possible environmental vote.

What You Can Do

Join one of the Three Environmental Parties and help them to take a stand.

The Three Environmental Parties

The Greens

Go to The Greens Home Page

"Peace and Non Violence + Grassroots Democracy + Social and Economic Justice + Ecological Sustainability"

Australia's premier green political party is stuck at around 12% of the vote. With your help they maybe they could win more seats?

Membership $30 - $135 pa.


NewAustralia

Go to NewAustralia Home Page

"Green Tax Shift + No Population Growth + More Transport & Health + Cost Effective Self Defence"

Emphasising a green tax shift rather than a green tax increase, NewAustralia aims to capture new votes from environmentalists who don't like the Tax, Defence or Population policies of The Greens. Preferences to Greens & Democrats.

Membership is free.

NewAustralia plans to just have placards and posters at polling stations without how-to-vote cards. They need 500 members to register.


The Democrats

Go to The Democrats Home Page

"Public Good + Justice and Freedom + Sustainable Australia + Truth and Accountability"

The Australian Democrats are rebuilding to 'put the middle ground back in to Australian Politics'.

Membership $25 - $100 pa.

As each party can only have one platform, having three parties with three different platforms will yield a higher total number of votes than just one green party.

The Alternative

Just support the Greens - and watch the Lib/Labs get 90% of the vote again!
