Dear NEVILLE,Just 4 days ago, the Queensland Government celebrated 3 months in office.
That’s just over 100 days since the election where they won a mandate to protect the Great Barrier Reef.
That’s the election where they promised to do 5 specific things to protect the world’s largest living organism.
And, in less than 40 days, 21 countries will convene at the World Heritage meeting to decide whether or not enough has been done.
That’s a lot of numbers – but you know what’s an even better one? 231 281. That’s the number of people who’ve joined the Fight for the Reef. (You’re 1 of them!)
Right now, it’s really important, that every single one of those people helps remind the Queensland Government that they were elected with a clear mandate: Protect the Great Barrier Reef and the tourism and jobs that rely on it.
Can you please remind them of that, by clicking here and urging them to take immediate action to protect the Reef.
If the Government doesn’t act soon, it will be too late. With less than 2 months until the World Heritage Committee meets on the future of the Reef, there is just no time to waste.
Queensland’s political leaders need to hear from you right now. Can you please send a message to the Premier and Minister for the Reef now and urge them to take immediate action on five key Reef commitments?
It only takes 30 seconds for 1 person to do it. But if thousands of people do, it’ll send a clear message to the Queensland government: you must act urgently.
It’s time leaders put their words into action.
Click here to send a message and tell the Premier and Minister for the Reef actions speak louder than words.
Thank you so much,
