Cash for Containers Campaign

Dear Cash for Containers Supporter,

NOW IS THE TIME TO SEND A LETTER TO YOUR PREMIER!

After years of campaigning we have arrived at a very critical point. 

A few weeks from now (on 24 August) state and federal environment ministers will be meeting to decide on whether Australia should have a container deposits scheme.

State cabinets will be deciding their government’s position within a matter of days. 

Your letter to your state Premier is needed to help give us the best chance. 

You can send one via our action page, or better still personally write a letter to the Premier and your local Member of Parliament.

Many thanks,
Jeff Angel

National Convenor of the Boomerang Alliance of 21 environment groups

PS: You may have seen the beverage industry’s misleading advertising calling a deposit system a ‘tax’.  We are up against well-funded opponents!  Your donation will always help:  Donate here

* donations are received by the Total Environment Centre which is managing the campaign funds on our behalf
