Here’s the โ€œwarningโ€ we want to send our political leaders: โ€œIn the next election, the most critical issue for me is the environment and I will be castingf my vote on thisย basis.โ€

Not at the show? That’s okay, you can go here and add your name. We will be sending to the leaders of all the national political parties. So sign up – the more names we get the stronger our warning, and send it on to yourย friends!

Thanks!
