Why

The People’s Blockade, on the lands and waters of the Awabakal and Worimi Peoples, is now one of the most iconic climate uprisings in the world and 2025 will be the biggest and boldest yet! Make history as we escalate for the climate.

As cyclones, floods, droughts and fires become more frequent and intense, ordinary people — just like you — are rising up. Now is the time.
