MEDIA ALERT: March for Nature

Australian Conservation Foundation < 1 mins read

Hundreds of people will take to the streets of Sydney tomorrow for a big and powerful rally demanding the Albanese government take action to protect Australia's precious species and landscapes. 

The rally coincides with preparations for next week's world-first Global Nature Positive Summit hosted by the Albanese government and stalling negotiations in parliament to fix our broken nature laws.

Australia's extinction crisis is getting worse with much-loved species like the koala and greater glider on the brink. Shamefully, Australia is also a global deforestation hotspot. 

Details: March for Nature: No Nature, No Future!
When: Tomorrow, Saturday 5 October, 11am.
Where: Meet at Speakers Corner, The Domain, Sydney and then march through the Botanical Gardens. 

Media are invited to attend. B-roll and interviews will be sent around at 4pm.

The march is co-hosted by the Australian Conservation Foundation, Birdlife, The Wilderness Society and NSW Conservation Council.  

Please note: this rally has received NSW Police approval and has been planned to cause as little disruption as possible.

Talent Alert: Experts and case study available for interview on CSIRO GenCost Draft 2025-26 Report

Wednesday 17 December For immediate release. CSIRO’s Draft 2025-26 GenCost Report, released today, has once again found that renewables (solar and onshore wind) are set to form the lowest cost electricity generation mix for Australia through to 2050. The new CSIRO and AEMO modelling confirms electricity generation costs would be a third lower with an 82% renewable grid, while building a new coal-fired power station today would deliver electricity for at least double the cost of solar and wind. Today’s report underscores that the pace of the shift to clean energy must increase, to secure a stable electricity grid and…
