Thank you to Dai Le MP for meeting with us last month. We spoke about rising disaster costs and the unfair financial burden on communities. We value her support for solutions that don’t leave people carrying these costs alone. #BushfireSurvivors #DisasterCosts #BudgetBlackHole

Thank you to Labor MP Fiona Phillips for meeting with us in Parliament last month. We discussed the growing impacts of disasters on communities, the financial pressures they bring, and the urgent need to reduce these risks. #BushfireSurvivors #DisasterCosts

We had a productive discussion with Alison Penfold about the growing toll of worsening disasters - and how the enormous costs of these disasters, that normally fall on communities and local government, could be paid for. Thanks for meeting with us, Alison. #DisasterCosts #BudgetBlackHole

Labor Senator Charlotte Walker was deeply engaged as we presented The Australian Bushfire Survivor Declaration. We spoke about rising disaster costs, the urgency of reducing emissions, and communities already under strain. We're grateful for her enthusiasm and engagement. #DisasterCosts

We are shocked and saddened by the violent attack on the Australian Jewish community that took place in Bondi on Sunday night. Our hearts are breaking for you. You should be able to celebrate your faith in safety.

Greens Senator Steph Hodgins-May enthusiastically signed our Declaration - along with her staff! She took the time to truly listen, and we’re grateful for her support. Add your name at: bushfiresurvivors.org/declaration #BushfireDeclaration

Independent Senator David Pocock signed The Australian Bushfire Survivor Declaration in Parliament last month. We’re grateful for Senator Pocock's leadership and compassion. Add your name to the Australian Bushfire Survivor Declaration at bushfiresurvivors.org/declaration #BushfireDeclaration

We are holding everyone affected by these fires in our hearts today. Governments keep saying "be prepared" but survivors can only do so much when our leaders keep approving the coal and gas projects that fuel the crisis. Sign the Declaration: bushfiresurvivors.org/declaration #BushfireSurvivors

We are feeling deeply for everyone affected by the bushfires. You are not alone. Jan knows what it is to lose everything, and this Christmas, she's wishing for a government that acts on climate and keeps Australians safe. Sign the Declaration: bushfiresurvivors.org/declaration #ClimateAction

Our hearts are with everyone affected by bushfires, especially those who’ve lost everything. Politicians say “be prepared”, but we can only do so much. Donna’s Christmas wish is for our leaders to stop fuelling the fires and act on climate. Sign our Declaration: bushfiresurvivors.org/declaration

Meet our new Board members - these leaders bring lived experience and a commitment to climate fairness. Welcome Megan Kessler, Monique Batterham, @ellybaxter.bsky.social and Kate Olivieri. Join our community at: bushfiresurvivors.org/joinus #ClimateLeadership

Dumping net-zero isn’t leadership - it’s abandonment. The coalition dumping Net Zero is a slap in the face to every community facing climate impacts. We are rightfully furious. #NetZero #AusPol #BushfireSurvivors

Jan lost her home in the 2018 Tathra fires - and she's sick of the politicisation of climate change. Jan just wants to know: when will our governments keep us safe?! The coalition dumping Net Zero has let our communities know that they simply don't care about us. #NetZero #BushfireSurvivors #AusPol

While we're still out here rebuilding our lives from yet another disaster, the coalition have dumped their promise of Net Zero by 2050. Jack lost his home over New Years in 2020. No wonder he's expecting more from them. #NetZero #AusPol #BushfireSurvivors

At the Punters Politics gala dinner - a night giving everyday Aussies the political access usually saved for deep-pocketed lobbyists - we decided Bushfire Survivors should have a voice. No cheque-book signatures - just punters signing our declaration to #MakeBigPollutersPay 🔥 #punterspolitics

We welcome the leadership of the 80+ countries signing onto the proposal for a global roadmap to phase out fossil fuels at COP30. We urge the Albanese government to back it fully. Comment, like and share this video to show your support for the roadmap - and for climate safety. #COP30

And he still can't say when they will actually release the full details of their energy policy.

Watch the Liberals celebrate abandoning communities to worsening climate disasters. We see you. We won’t forget.

I reckon a fossil fuel being heavily promoted at climate week is a bad thing

She may be on leave, but Jo couldn’t stay quiet on our 2035 climate targets. Yr 12 students are setting the bar high for their exams right now. Why can’t our govt set the bar high for their future? 62-70% is not good enough. Find and tell your Labor MP & Senators: aph.gov.au/Senators_and_Members

At last week's hearing on the National Climate Risk Assessment, our CEO Serena Joyner explained: fossil fuel corporations rake in record profits, while we're left to pay for the climate damage they cause. It's time they paid their fair share. Sign: bushfiresurvivors.org/mbpp #MakeBigPollutersPay

Australia’s 2035 target of 62–70% isn’t strong enough. If every country did this, we’d exceed 2.4°C of warming. That would bring more frequent and dangerous bushfires, more deaths from heat and smoke, and 5 times the damage bill. 1/2 #2035ClimateTargets #StrongerTargetSaferFuture

The government have announced their target of 62-70% emissions reduction by 2035. We know this is not enough. After the release of the alarming National Climate Risk Assessment, we are ashamed the government has set such a dangerously low target. We are deeply disappointed. #ClimateTargets2035

“In 2050... my granddaughter will be 31. It's a scary world she’s looking at.” Jan Harris calling on the Prime Minister to set a strong 2035 climate target and choose a safer future. #StrongerClimateSaferFuture #ClimateTargets2035 #NetZero2035

Fiona Lee lost her home in 2019. Today, there are 2 big things happening in her life: she’s installing sprinklers on her new home - and the government is going to reveal its 2035 climate targets. We are doing what we can to stay safe, we need governments to do the same. #ClimateTargets2035

After the release of the National Climate Risk Assessment, we now await the announcement of Australia's 2035 climate targets. The govt. can no longer afford to delay strong action - and that means real emissions reduction and a strong climate target to keep people safer. #2035climatetargets

Yesterday's National Climate Risk Assessment confirms what bushfire survivors already know: our communities are on the frontline of worsening extreme weather and disasters. But there’s hope. We can act now to protect lives and our communities... 1/2

Murray Watt has just signed off on an expansion of Glencore’s Ulan coal mine near Mudgee - granting access to 18.8 million extra tonnes of coal until 2035. That means an additional 663 million tonnes of Scope 3 emissions when that coal is burned. 1/2 #SupportCommunitiesNotCorporations

The Albanese Government IS apprently very comfortable with approving Woodside's North West Shelf LNG facility until 2070. The centrepiece of *the most polluting fossil fuel project in the southern hemisphere* When-if ever-will this government stand with communities, not corporations?

While ordinary people are paying the price of escalating climate disasters, big polluters keep raking in record profits. It’s time they paid their fair share. ✍️ Sign the petition today: bushfiresurvivors.org/mbpp #MakeBigPollutersPay #BushfireSurvivors

The NSW Court of Appeal blocked the Mount Pleasant coal expansion - the largest proposed in the state - and ruled that Scope 3 emissions can’t be ignored.🙌 We made a video to explain why this is so important. Congrats to DAMS HEG and the EDO on this incredible victory! youtube.com/shorts/R6wEb...

🙌 The Community Congress is coming 🙌 We'll be presenting, sharing how we bring the power of our stories to the courts, politicians, the media and social platforms to drive change. We can't wait! 📅 FRI SEPT 19 🎟️ Tickets at: events.humanitix.com/community-congress #CommunityCongress2025

🔥 4 years ago survivors made history. We won a case against the NSW EPA - the Court ruled they have a legal duty to act on climate change. ⚖️ It was the first time an Australian court forced a government to take meaningful climate action. Together, we can win climate action. 🌏 #BushfireSurvivors

We're holding our breaths this week as the government prepares to announce our 2035 climate targets. For bushfire survivors, this moment means the world. We're ready to see a strong commitment to a safer future. @albomp.bsky.social #2035ClimateTargets #StrongerTargetSaferFuture

“Realistic” shouldn’t mean watered-down. If it’s not protecting Aussies from worsening climate harm, then it’s not realistic at all. We need to do the best we can to keep Australians safe - and set a strong 2035 climate target. #NetZero2035 #StrongerTargetSaferFuture #ClimateAction
