Stop Turnbull Government from reducing funding to CSRIO climate change researchers at the Marine and Atmospheric Research
- Target:
- The Prime Minister of Australia.
- Region:
- Australia
The Malcolm Turnbull led Liberal Government have savaged the funding of the CSIRO Marine and Atmospheric Research centre based in Aspendale.
These are really dumb cuts and are a dumb decision because of the research that is being done on Climate Change.
On 4 February Chief Executive Larry Marshall announced a plan to cut another 350 jobs from CSIRO, targeting critical research in Land and Water, Oceans and Atmosphere, Minerals and Energy, Digital Productivity and Manufacturing.
Malcolm Turnbull and Tony Abbott have starved CSIRO of funding it needs to continue critical research to support Australian industries and serve the public good.
Join our community supporters at the State Library of Victoria in Melbourne to rally against these cuts and take a stand to #supportCSIRO.
Sign this petition and share it widely and attend the RALLY 12 PM SATURDAY 2, APRIL, State Library of Victoria.
We the undersigned call on the Prime Minister of Australia Malcolm Turnbull to reinstate funding to the CSIRO and save the jobs of 350 staff who carry out this important work at the Marine and Atmospheric Research centre in Aspendale Victoria.
