Collectively we are facing the biggest challenge humanity has ever known.
The climate crisis poses an existential threat, and our response MUST scale to meet that challenge. We can't afford to wait for another election cycle, or for 'the economics' to be right. There is no time for business as usual.
Ordinary citizens are acting in solidarity - right around the globe - to make sure climate justice happens, now.
When you become a Climate Justice Union member, your fees support community organising efforts aimed at achieving a rapid, fair and just transition to net-zero emissions in Western Australia, while preparing for and adapting to the impacts of climate change.
We work for climate justice, and that means our transition must be fair and must result in better outcomes for ordinary people. This must not be yet another exercise in colonialism and exploitation.
Climate justice means a positive future for First Nations people, for rural communities, for fossil fuel workers, for low-income communities, for people affected by extreme weather, and for all other people impacted by climate change.
By pooling our resources and working together, we can and will do this.
This is our moment, our chance to reshape history for the better.

We acknowledge that we begin our work as The Climate Justice Union on the Boodja (land) of the Wadjuk people of the Noongar Nation. We honour the Wadjuk people and their kin in other Nations and Country across these lands and waters, who have always cared for this place and all who lived here.
We acknowledge First Nations Elders past and present, and acknowledge that those of us living here, who came from across the seas, live on land that was taken, stolen. We acknowledge the responsibility that comes with this understanding and that we personally and collectively benefit from this theft.
As such, we all have a responsibility to decolonise ourselves, our lives and work, and to heal the harm these oppressive systems have inflicted.
