The Great Suburban Walk
There’s a federal election on its way, yet our political leaders continue to backflip, delay and deny on climate change. With so much at stake, it’s time for the community to put climate action back on the election agenda.
The 2010 Walk Against Warming demand that our political leaders face up to their responsibility on climate change. We’ll remind them that to secure our votes, they must ‘Walk with the People, Not the Big Polluters’.
This year we took our message for a safe climate straight to the people that matter most – the voters.
We coordinated hundreds of Victorians in three key electorates (Melbourne, Deakin and La Trobe) to come together and letterbox. To make sure that voters in those areas know exactly what actions our leaders need to take on climate change.
So that means that less than one week before the federal election, up to 300,000 of the most influential voters in Victoria will receive our safe climate message. How good!

The Midfield Wetlands Walk is seen in Norfolk, Va., on July 26, 2024. Since 2016, the Lafayette Wetlands Partnership has restored the area by first removing invasive species, including 12,000 square feet of invasive common reed, known as phragmites, and a number of invasive plants in Elwood Meadow. In their place, 14 volunteer events were held to plant native species, including 4,000 plugs of native grasses and other herbaceous plants, and additional larger plants, shrubs and trees.

Chief G. Anne Richardson, right, of the Rappahannock Tribe, poses for photographs with U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland and other members of the Rappahannock Tribe during an event to commemorate the transfer of ownership to the tribe of 465 acres along the Rappahannock River near Fones Cliffs in Essex County, Va., on April 1, 2022. Working in partnership with the Rappahannock Tribe and the Wilderness Society, the Chesapeake Conservancy purchased the land from a private lumber company with fiscal support from the National Fish and Wildlife Foundation and the Angle Family, through Walmart's Acres for America program. The land includes the site of Pissacoak, one of three Rappahannock towns that historically occupied the land along Fones Cliffs, and has been placed into a conservation easement with the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service.

Smooth cordgrass grows at a mature living shoreline near the home of Marie Jensen on the Lafayette River in Norfolk, Va., on July 26, 2024. In 2014, the city picked the spot for restoration because it was eroding and wetland grasses were no longer growing.(Photo by Rhiannon Johnston/Chesapeake Bay Program)
