19.01.2022 The People’s Clean Action Plans for NSW and Vic are here! The NSW and Victorian communities have waited too long for a state-wide strategy for clean air.

Meanwhile, coal-fired power stations continue to pump out toxic pollution and make record profits at the expense of the community’s health. Where the government has failed, the people have stepped in with a clear plan of action to reduce pollution and protect community health. It’s called the People’s Clean Air Action Plan.
