International climate negotiations in South Africa could collapse in 36 hours, effectively signing Africa’s death sentence -- and Australia is watching it happen. Let’s send Minister Combet and PM Gillard a national call to take their climate leadership global now!

At the crucial UN climate summit, the US is trying to derail the talks and New Zealand and Japan are trying to kill the last meaningful climate law: the Kyoto Protocol. Europe and vulnerable African and Island nations, are fighting back but they need our support. Australia has just won a landmark carbon price, and our international backing now could tip the balance.

With 36 hours left, Minister Combet is dangerously silent, preferring to let others take on the fight for our future. It’s up to us to raise the alarm and pressure our government to take our huge climate victory global. Let’s flood Combet and PM Gillard with messages urging them to continue being climate champions and stand with Africa at the UN talks. Messages will be sent directly to them and also delivered through an Avaaz team on the ground. Send a message now!
