Citizens' Climate Bennelong
Citizens’ Climate Lobby (CCL) is a non-partisan and not-for-profit, climate solutions advocacy organisation, focused on inspiring Australia to be a leader in a global race addressing climate change for a liveable world.
Our local chapter—in the federal electorate of Bennelong—is a growing group of everyday locals in the Ryde-Epping-Parramatta area of Sydney, working together to advocate for fair, effective, and sustainable climate change solutions.
Lobbying
Government incentives play a critical role in the speed of change, and we must do all we can to ensure fair, effective, and sustainable climate policy is implemented. That’s why we engage and build relationships with parliamentarians, across the political spectrum, as part of creating the political will for climate solutions.
Grasstops
Looking to network? Connect with local business leaders on climate solutions. Help local businesses make climate a priority. Profits and climate action go hand in hand.
Media
Have a knack for writing? You’ll love the ease of writing a letter to the editor of local or national publications to have your voice heard, or why not help with our social media.
Grassroots
Love talking to new people? Table with us at a local market day or event. Talk directly with fellow constituents and help send their environmental concerns to their elected officials.
Chapter Developing & Organising
We love our volunteers. We’re building a safe, inclusive community of individuals committed to the same cause who also have some fun along the way.
Partnerships
Help build relationships with members of the community. Inclusiveness is key and we can all be of help to each other. Engage with other advocates across the environmental space, as well as other intersecting issues.
