We are in the middle of a climate emergency and long running jobs and inequality crises. People are angry and anxious because the government has no plan for the big problems facing the country. This is why Australia needs a Green New Deal.

A Green New Deal means government leading the country in transforming our economy, creating new jobs and industries powered by clean energy and delivering universal services like dental into Medicare and genuinely free education. This is what I will be fighting for.

As a Swede on a temp.skills shortage visa in AUS I’m astonished about the forces against the Greens and what you want to accomplish. Decarbonising the economy is part of every Swedish company’s greater purpose as well as equal rights e.g health and education is for every citizen.

Good luck Adam. Can I suggest pivoting from ‘coal is dead’ in QLD/NSW to ‘climate change is a National security issue’? You need to bypass the framing Canavan/Mineral Council of Australia etc. that ‘coal=jobs’

Also: the flip side is to ‘build’
Build the future. Positive.
That we Aussies want to build a great future for our kids and community.
Creating jobs.
The New Progess.
An enduring prosperity.
The dynamic clean economy.
Clean air clean water good jobs.

How will you widen the scope of the Greens' Policy Agenda to influence the redesigning of the economy etc. We need a new system. A new political system based on science NOT religion. We need to bring back the village and create neighbourhood economies and markets.
