The Climate and Environmental Whistleblowing Information Guide is a practical legal resource to support any person to raise concerns about climate and environmental wrongdoing in Australia.

Despite all of the evidence pointing to the need to phase out fossil fuels to address the existential threat of climate change, there are 116 new coal and gas plants in development before 2030, and the Australian Government is providing a $1.5 billion dollar subsidy for the Middle Arm gas hub in NT.
