The Queensland State Election is fast approaching!
We are at a pivotal point here in Tropical North Queensland. As the pandemic continues we are seeing the increasing impacts of climate change our natural environments and our communities are suffering. High unemployment rates, economic recession and tourism downturn is exacerbated by the climate impacts we are facing. In recent years, we have experienced our homes inundated with flood waters, storm surges ravaging our coast, widespread coral bleaching, catastrophic heatwaves and increased fires, wet seasons with no rain, and damaging cyclones.
But found within the Green and Blue Economic Stimulus Package, our region has the answers and the opportunity to be better prepared and create a brighter future. By employing more people in land and sea management now, and creating long-term jobs to protect our World Heritage Areas we will a) increase our resilience to climate change, and b) rapidly increase and sustain the flow of money directly into our economy. As well as, igniting innovation and diversification to our industry that will transition our region to be the Smart Green Capital of Australia.
We have the answer but we need to gain the support from governments, philanthropy, industry, and our community.
Come along to discover opportunities to take action with like-minded people, and make sure our economic recovery is not ‘business as usual’. Find out how you can make sure your voice is heard. We need our Far North Qld community to turn up, turn out and get LOUD – to make sure our region is heard this election. We need to be a strong collective voice as stewards of two World Heritage Areas. We need you talking and writing to our decision makers, community members, family and friends.
RSVP to the #GreenBlueRecovery Campaign Launch Event today to find out how you can ensure our region is better prepared, and create a brighter future.
Hope to see you there. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to email Aisha at getinvolved@nullcafnec.org.au
