About the Beyond Gas Network
The Beyond Gas Network is a volunteer network of grassroots climate action networks that originated in the east and south east of Melbourne. It has now established links to groups and organisations in other parts of Melbourne, NSW, Queensland, the Northern Territory and Western Australia. and through our groups’ email lists reaches audiences of tens of thousands.
We are particularly active in the electorates of Goldstein, Higgins, and Kooyong. We believe if citizens in these electorates were more aware of the scale and impact of the federal government’s gas expansion plans, many would withdraw support from their current federal representatives who have devised and are executing these plans. Hence In the lead-up to the election we plan to intensify our campaign through town hall meetings, large scale webinars, and mainstream and social media to highlight the terrible consequential decisions these representatives are making in our name.
