Put a price on pollution.
Meeting with every politician in the country about a price on pollution. This campaign connected young people to their own MPs and Senators to have conversations about climate action and putting a price on pollution. This resulted in 226 meetings – a massive decentralised display of support for stronger climate policy.
The campaign climaxed at a huge national summit in Canberra. At the MYM Finale 100 young people converged on Parliament house for multiple meetings and a huge media stunt outside. A few months later Australia passed legislation that made polluters pay for the damage they make.
