Our action earlier this month collected more than 690 signatures in an hour! With your help, we can grab the attention of afternoon commuters with our No New Coal signs and get them signing the petition to Parliament in record numbers. Register as a volunteer .
In coming weeks, NSW Cabinet will be asked to consider a proposal for a moratorium on new coal-fired power stations in the state. You can show Cabinet members Premier Kristina Keneally and Ministers Sartor and Lynch that there is strong community support for an end to coal-fired power generation by sending our cyberaction today .
You can also leave a personal message by calling the Premier's Office on (02) 9228 5239.
