| Dear NEVILLE
There have been moments in history when people decided: we can’t let a bad situation continue – we need to draw a line and say enough is enough.
For our Great Barrier Reef, this is one of those moments: Please click here, and then add your name to our global petition to world leaders asking them to protect our Reef.
We’ve been watching what’s happening to the Great Barrier Reef for more than a decade, and now we’re at a tipping point. With plans to dump millions of cubic metres of dredge spoil on the Reef, it’s now critical that we work together and draw a line to protect it.
Last week, we took the dramatic step of asking the WWF global network to share our calls for the protection of the Reef with the world. They did, and it’s working. So far, nearly 100,000 people from Spain to China, and in four different languages, have joined together at wwf.org.au/reef and said: this is where we draw the line. Are you one of them?
Signing this global petition will help show the Australian Government that all around the world, people are saying – “the value of the Reef is indisputable”. That will get the government to rethink their strategy of denying the dire threat to the Great Barrier Reef, and instead, move to protect it.
Once you’ve signed, can you help us by getting your friends and family to join the fight as well? Think of the 3 people close to you who you think would want to see the Reef protected, and please, forward them this email and ask them to draw a line with you at wwf.org.au/reef
Thank you for all that you’re doing to protect our Reef,
Louise Matthiesson
Great Barrier Reef Campaigner
