Tell PM Julia 'No oil drilling - protect Margaret River'

Tips for emailing the Prime Minister:

Personalise your email to the Prime Minister as much as you can.

Congratulations on becoming Prime Minister.

Your government is currently establishing a network of marine sanctuaries throughout Australia's South West to save our marine life.
Two areas being considered for sanctuary status are off Kangaroo Island and Margaret River. They are expected to be home to a treasure-trove of undiscovered marine life, and are known to provide habitat for turtles, fur seals, migrating humpbacks and even the endangered blue whale.
In May, just weeks after the Gulf of Mexico oil spill started, these areas had new oil leases declared on top of them. Oil drilling and spills are the very sort of risk that sanctuaries are supposed to safeguard against
The Gulf oil spill is now spewing up to 10 million litres of oil a day into the ocean. Where oil drilling occurs, there is always the potential for accidents. Australia's own oil spill happened just last year when there was a catastrophic blow out on the Montara platform off the Kimberley coast.
Don't let this happen on our beaches, and to our marine life.
Please establish a world-class network of large marine sanctuaries in Australia's South West, where up to 90% of the marine life is unique, but less than 1% protected.

Send Julia a message – Sanctuaries, not spills

Oil leases Imagine a massive oil spill off the world-famous beaches of Margaret River or the wildlife refuge of Kangaroo Island. Oil is devastating the Gulf of Mexico right now, and we had our own spill off the Kimberley coast just last year.

With 31 new oil leases approved this year, this scenario is now even more possible in our own backyard. But we have a fresh opportunity to stop this.

With a new Prime Minister and a Federal election just around the corner, it's now up to us to make this an election issue. Political parties are currently deciding on their election commitments, so if ever there was a time to be speaking up, its NOW.

A personal message to Australia's first woman Prime Minster is one of the most effective ways to be heard. Send PM Julia a quick personalised email here.
