To ensure Australia is doing its fair share for a safe climate, we call on the Government to:

1. Tell Australians and the rest of the world when Australia will stop approving new coal mines.

2. Tell Australians and the rest of the world when Australia will stop approving new oil and gas projects.

3. Stop offsets being used to justify new fossil fuel projects.

4. End native forest logging.

This episode shows a Blue Mountains neighbourhood preparing for bushfire.

Disaster-affected communities frequently emphasise the need to ‘know your neighbours’ – know who they are, what their needs and plans may be and what skills and resources they have. This vignette demonstrates how for some communities this takes the form of warden or street facilitator networks; people who understand the lay of the land, can serve as a point of contact for advice and organise street-level disaster preparation and readiness activities.
