Australian Firefighters Climate Alliance. AFCA is a network of grassroots firefighters who are joining together to advocate for stronger action on climate change.
What We Do
Campaign: We mobilise grassroots firefighters to be active on climate change issues
Educate: We seek to provide materials and information about the links between climate change and longer fire seasons.
Network: We encourage networking and skill sharing.
“Firefighters are on the frontline of climate change. We see the impacts of fire seasons that are longer and more intense. Fire behaviour is changing, and changing for the worse. Climate change causes extreme weather, which in turn causes bushfires and other natural disasters. This is our workplace, and it is becoming more and more unsafe” Darin Sullivan, Fire and Rescue NSW
