About us

We’re a coalition of climate justice organisations working together to achieve a fossil free state sector. Collectively we represent thousands of people across Aotearoa united by our vision for a clean-powered, equitable and just future for all.

Fossil fuels have no place in the boilers that warm our schools, hospitals, prisons and other public institutions. Together we are building public support and the social license for our government to prioritise state sector decarbonisation to lower our overall carbon emissions, improve the quality of the air we breathe and send a clear message that the days of burning dirty fossil fuels like coal are over.

We are working to achieve:

• An immediate ban on all new fossil fuel boilers in state sector buildings.
• A commitment to transition all existing fossil fuel boilers to renewably sourced power by 2025, and additional budget allocation to support the transition.
• The release of clear steps on the application process for grants from the Clean Powered State Sector Fund to make it accessible for all state sector institutions to apply to the fund.
• The publication a list of all state sector institutions, including local authorities, still burning fossil fuels for heat.
