The SAVE THE PLANET difference
- We tell the truth about how bad global warming really is.
- We demand the changes needed to give us the best chance of stopping and reversing it.
- We deal with the whole issue from energy production, to agriculture, to economics, social justice and population.
- We are the only party campaigning on reversing global warming as our number 1 priority.
"There is no compromise on global warming"
Save the Planet is a new political party and community campaign focused on reversing global warming and recreating a safe climate. To achieve this there are three basic steps:
1. realise there is a crisis that we need to tackle now
2. we need to stop making the planet hotter
3. we need to make the planet cooler
Most political parties are not even up to point 1, prioritising action on global warming below tax cuts to corporations or stopping refugees.
"We have every technical solution we need to reverse global warming and create a safe climate but we just lack the political will."

why a new party?
If we want to avoid a climate catastrophe, we must make global warming the primary election issue; and unlike any other party, Save the Planet's number one issue is 'global warming' and the solutions needed for a safe climate.
Yes, other parties have climate policies, but we are not distracted by other issues and are the only party focused on reversing global warming.
Save the Planet will work with voters and parties across the political spectrum to achieve a safe climate. This is vital, with most right-of-centre parties being controlled by climate deniers and progressive parties only offering token or non solutions that will not stop a runaway global warming event.
Our mission is to campaign so effectively that all major parties match our position or get voted out. Only then will a safe climate be possible in Australia.
The following 1 minute video explains why voting for independents minor parties such as Save the Planet is not a waste: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xs1TUGwqiE.
