Melville City Climate Action Network Inc (MCCAN)
While it can seem complex and overwhelming, the best antidote is actually quite simple -
take some action and we are here to help!
We are your neighbours and fellow travellers on the journey of trying to make changes to our own behaviour,
influence the City of Melville Council and the State & Federal Governments,
to support households to make the necessary changes to drive down carbon emissions.
We will hold activities to help implement the Community Climate Action Plan.

As community members, we recognise that climate change is real and the threat is significant. If we do not drastically take action now, the world's climate will become increasingly more uncomfortable and dangerous to live in and our children will inherit an increasingly unstable world, with severe weather conditions and potential ecological collapse.
We believe local councils can play a major role in responding to the climate emergency and mobilising local populations. Local governments have significant opportunities and the power to invest in services and infrastructure to help combat the climate emergency. Successes in local communities can spread to other councils and to state and federal government levels.
