NT Election 2020: sign the petition for action on heat & climate

Rising temperatures and heat in the Northern Territory are a serious threat to health.

Health and social welfare groups, along with NT-based health professionals, are calling on the NT government and all NT election candidates to commit to:

urgently implementing a comprehensive Heat-Health Action Plan
adopting a Climate Change Act for the Northern Territory to facilitate rapid decarbonisation and limit the impacts of climate change on human health
improving sustainability in healthcare

You can read the full briefing and its policy recommendations here: Northern Territory Election Briefing: Heat, Climate Change, Health and the Need for Urgent Action.

Urgent action is required to reduce the community health impacts of extreme heat and climate change in the Territory. I call on the NT government and all NT election candidates to commit to urgent action on heat and climate change to protect health.
