Acting Locally on Climate
Connecting people and solutions to meet the Global Challenge
About Us
Held together by a fabric of grounded communities the Gold Coast is one of Australia’s most beautiful cities, surrounded by world class golden beaches and world heritage listed rainforests. The impacts of climate change threaten much of what makes the Gold Coast so special. With so much of the city nestled on a thin strip of land between the hinterland and the ocean our communities are at increased risk of flooding and fires, devastating cyclones and coastal erosion.
Recognising the risks from climate change to our way of life, a number of community groups and leaders have come together to work on local solutions to the climate crisis. Our mission is simple, we support our community to come together to take local action to stop runaway climate change. We are a volunteer led network of diverse grassroots groups who support one another to have a big impact fostering solutions all Gold Coasters can support.
Our vision is to preserve our beautiful communities and the natural environment we inhabit for future generations and to play our part in preventing the worst of the climate crisis.
