In 2016, Fiona was imagining a hopeful future for her newborn baby.
3 years later, her daughter's first bedroom, along with everything they owned was incinerated in the climate-fuelled bushfires of 2019/20.
Survivors like Fiona are why we can’t afford delay any longer.

Alex Kelly was forced to evacuate twice in just days - first from bushfire, then from flash flooding.
While communities are left to pay for recovery - big polluters make record profits. We're calling for a fairer system.

Thank you to Dai Le MP for meeting with us last month.
We spoke about rising disaster costs and the unfair financial burden on communities.
We value her support for solutions that don’t leave people carrying these costs alone.

We are holding everyone affected by these fires in our hearts today.
Governments keep saying "be prepared" but survivors can only do so much when our leaders keep approving the coal and gas projects that fuel the crisis.

Dumping net-zero isn’t leadership - it’s abandonment.
The coalition dumping Net Zero is a slap in the face to every community facing climate impacts. We are rightfully furious.

Jan lost her home in the 2018 Tathra fires - and she's sick of the politicisation of climate change. Jan just wants to know: when will our governments keep us safe?!
The coalition dumping Net Zero has let our communities know that they simply don't care about us.

While we're still out here rebuilding our lives from yet another disaster, the coalition have dumped their promise of Net Zero by 2050.
Jack lost his home over New Years in 2020. No wonder he's expecting more from them.

While ordinary people are paying the price of escalating climate disasters, big polluters keep raking in record profits.
It’s time they paid their fair share.

🔥 4 years ago survivors made history.
We won a case against the NSW EPA - the Court ruled they have a legal duty to act on climate change.
⚖️ It was the first time an Australian court forced a government to take meaningful climate action.
Together, we can win climate action. 🌏

We’ve seen what weak targets cost our communities.
Even an 80% target will show us that our government has the guts to tackle the greatest threat to our communities that we will see for generations.

At BSCA, storytelling is our superpower. And we know why.
The science tells us that storytelling helps build empathy and trust. So when we share our stories of bushfire, we don't just raise awareness - we forge connections that inspire action.
