Are you one of the majority of Australians who urgently want our country to cut our greenhouse pollution?
Most Australians don't have time to read Professor Garnaut's shocking 600-page climate report, so read a quick clip that summarises it fast, what it means for Australia - and what it means for you.
Garnaut is already under fire from a "scare campaign" being waged by the polluting industries' lobby groups and the Opposition.
That is why it's so important that you can pick a good climate solution from a bad one.
The Garnaut Review found that Australia will be hit hard by climate change.
If we do nothing, our grandkids will be living in a very different Australia, one where agriculture in the Murray Darling Basin has all but ended, the Great Barrier Reef has been destroyed, snow-based tourism in Australia is no longer viable, and 5.5 million Australians will be exposed to Dengue fever.
That's why it's important that you understand the climate solutions being proposed to solve the crisis ahead as the PM looks to the Australian public in formulating his response to Garnaut on July 16.
Attend one of Professor Garnaut's public forums about the emissions trading scheme - click here for details.
Exercise your creative talent with GetUp's World Youth Day Tshirt competition. The Chaser's Julian Morrow, Corinne Grant and GetUp's Brett Solomon will select the winning entry which will then be printed and for sale on the day.
