Dear Friend,
We are nearing political crunch time for the climate.
This weekend I have been meeting with members ot the Multi-Party Climate Change Committee for intensive talks on the price on pollution. These negotiations will shape Australia's future for years to come. While I am working hard in Canberra for the best possible outcome, we need the community to take a stand this weekend for a cleaner future.
I am calling on all friends and supporters to take a stand and send a strong message that the community says YES to a price on pollution.
WHAT: Join with me and thousands of other Australians to support a price on pollution as the first critical step in the transition to a clean energy economy.
WHEN: Sunday June 5. Meet at 10:30am with Adam Bandt and Greens MPs.
WHERE: State Library of Victoria, 328 Swanston Street, Melbourne

The coming months are vital to ensure the Government follows through with an effective plan to cut pollution. The best hope we have in getting an effective price on pollution will depend on the community showing that we are in favour of climate action.
Please forward this to your friends and neighbours, and join me on Sunday at the State Library.
Looking forward to seeing you Sunday,
Adam
