Seniors Say Give Our Planet Sporting Chance

National Seniors Australia supports an open letter signed by hundreds of our sporting stars demanding more action on climate change, following a poll of seniors also demanding action.

Australia's peak consumer organisation for older Australians also acknowledges a new YouGov poll which shows more voters demanding the government take further action.

The results mirror a similar poll by National Seniors taken this year which shows of the more than 4,300 respondents:

  • 85% believe climate change is occurring
  • Three quarters of seniors who believe it is occurring want action on climate change even if living costs increase
  • More than 60% of all seniors surveyed have already invested in renewable energy and products

National Seniors Chief Advocate Ian Henschke says Australians take pride in our sporting endeavours on the world stage and want to see us as high achievers too, in protecting our planet.
