We are in a climate crisis. We now know that the world has surpassed the 1.5C threshold that can trigger multiple ecological tipping points. We must do everything we can urgently to minimise harm. This country’s new coalition government however want to reopen the country to oil, coal, gas and other mining while handing consent approvals to politicians who are paid off by the same mining industries. We say NO WAY!

Join us and others across the country in a national climate strike at lunchtime on Friday 5 April. Let the government and the mining companies know they have no social licence to proceed! We are taking to the streets for our tamariki and mokopuna, for workers’ rights, Te Tiriti justice and a safe and equitable future for all, within our planetary boundaries.
