2025 Election Toolkit

As the deadline for a decision on Woodside’s North West Shelf extension got closer, Greenpeace had to decide whether to submit our reconsideration request about the project’s enormous risk to Scott Reef. Despite attacks from Dutton over such requests, we chose to submit it: protecting Scott Reef and ensuring a rigorous decision is above party politics.

The result? The Department delayed the decision until after the election. This extra time will help ensure all of the evidence is considered. Our head of Climate and Energy, Joe Rafalowicz, also talked about this on ABC Perth Drive.

The Government promised strong laws to protect nature, but this week they pushed harmful laws instead. Greenpeace put pressure on Labor to stop the extinction of Tasmania’s Maugean skate through lobbying, media, ads and Greenpeace volunteers just like you talking to voters.

But instead of listening, they worked with the Coalition to fast-track harmful laws. The Government will feel the impact of betraying our environment at the ballot box. Greenpeace will keep pushing this message throughout the election

Peter Dutton is getting worse on climate, pushing toxic gas plans that include giving Woodside’s Burrup Hub a free pass, fast-tracking new projects, and weakening carbon pollution controls. He also wants to scrap emissions standards for cars that Greenpeace supporters fought for just a year ago.

We hit back quickly with ads and emails from voters telling him the gas plan stinks. Voters want a real plan to cut pollution and bills—one that focuses on clean energy.

Greenpeace was in Jamaica confronting the deep sea mining threat—but Australia still won’t back a global ban. With the election near, we’re pushing harder than ever to halt ocean destruction and ensure Australia ratifies the Global Ocean Treaty while championing large ocean sanctuaries in our region.
