We’re Wadhuam Pabai and Wadhuam Paul, Guda Maluyligal men from the Torres Strait. We’re taking the Australian government to court to save our island homes.
Climate change isn’t just a problem for people in the Torres Strait – it affects all of us. If our case is successful, everyone in Australia will reap the benefits.

Everyone around the world is affected by Climate change, no one can escape the heartbreaking damage it has and will cause unless governments take action and create real change now, not later. In the UK we are experiencing drought, floods, storms, heatwaves, changes to nature and our ecosystems to name a few. This is without the mental toll the current climate has on you as an individual, fear for the future, what that will look like for my child and the rest of the world. I am aware that other countries have experienced even more devastating effects as a result of the climate crisis. Governments need be held to account for their decisions and actions as these affect millions of people and the entire future of the planet.

We acknowledge the Guda Maluyligal people and pay our respect to the tens of thousands of years of stories and community life and to Elders past and present.
We acknowledge that the legal system has been and continues to be used to oppress First Nations communities, and we will continue to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander leaders and movements to challenge injustice. Blak lives matter.
