Across the globe, coal and climate change pose an immediate threat to some of the world’s greatest natural and cultural places. Here in Australia half of the Great Barrier Reef is likely already dead, and the new Adani mega coal mine threatens the rest.

We call on the UNESCO World Heritage Committee to demand that governments comply with the Paris Agreement and stop coal and other fossil fuel developments that are fueling climate change and destroying World Heritage sites around the globe.
