Half the nation is terrified the fossil fuel industry/Morrison Government is stealing their future. What they really need is some ads telling them it’s okay not to be okay.
96% of young Australians consider climate change to be a serious problem and 89% say they are worried about it.
Four in five Australian students report being somewhat or very anxious about the climate emergency.
One-third of Australian women under 30 are reconsidering having children for this reason.
And that’s before the recent bushfire crisis cost 33 deaths, 2,779 homes, 17M hectares.and more than a billion animals.
The facts the Morrison Government is stacked with fossil fuel lobbyists, flush with fossil fuel donations, and using $29 billion of their taxes each year to subsidise fossil fuels, may not be helping.
On the other hand, unless you’re an academic, activist, artist, ABC journalist, bushfire victim, casual, disability support pensioner, homeless person, international student, temporary migrant worker, living below the poverty line, in an abusive relationship, or you care about the future of your friends, family and the planet, a Scotty from Marketing mental health campaign should sort you right out.
