Top 10 Reasons to Vote Green this Saturday
1. The Greens stand up for what’s right, not just what’s easy. Whether
it’s protecting the environment, introducing universal dental care,
opposing the war in Iraq or advocating for refugees to be treated
humanely, the Greens are driven by values, not polls.

2. It’s the Party everyone’s heading to. The
Greens are the third largest political party in Australia, with five
national Senators, 22 State MPs and more than 100 local
Greens councillors already playing a positive and constructive role
across Australia. More than a million Australians voted Green in 2007,
and we're the fastest-growing party in the country.

3. Break the deadlock in the Senate between the Government and the Opposition. Last
time the Government of the day also got control of the Senate, we
got WorkChoices. Or, Tony Abbott's Coalition could easily win control of
the Senate, which would deliver Australians nothing but three years of
deadlock. We deserve a Senate that will work for us and deliver strong,
sensible action – not just spin.

4. Provide future generations with clean air, clean water and a stable climate.
The Greens will tackle climate change by putting a price on carbon for
big polluters in the next term of government. It’s time we created new
clean energy jobs and started investing in the economy of the future.

5. Make legislation better. When the Coalition
tried to block the stimulus package that kept Australia out of
recession, the Greens passed it with added environmental and small
business benefits. The Greens will do the same thing to improve the
mining super profits tax.
