Northern Beaches Greens
a cleaner, greener, fairer future
We’re a local branch of the Greens, stretching from Dee Why accross to Forestville and up to Palm Beach.
Our mission is to champion environmental conservation, social justice, and grassroots democracy. We believe in taking bold action on climate change, protecting our precious natural habitats, and advocating for renewable energy solutions. Our commitment to social equity drives us to fight for accessible healthcare, quality education, and affordable housing for all.
We value community engagement and encourage active participation in the political process. We host events, workshops, and community forums to keep you informed and involved.
Whether you're passionate about environmental issues, social justice, or simply want to make a difference, we invite you to become part of our dynamic and inclusive movement. Together, we can build a sustainable and thriving Northern Beaches community. Join us in our efforts to create a greener, fairer future for all.

ECOLOGICAL SUSTAINABILITY
Good economic management means taking care of our earth — not treating our most precious resources like a giant business in liquidation: ‘everything must go!’. The levels of pollution in our atmosphere mean that business-as-usual will no longer work if we want to avoid dangerous climate change. The future for Australia can still be a prosperous one if we build our economy on green principles rather than short-term self-interest.
GRASSROOTS PARTICIPATORY DEMOCRACY
Real progress comes when enough people believe it is possible to make a difference and decide to do something about it. All Greens members and supporters are driven by the desire to work towards a better Australia. In contrast to the two old parties, which are run by executives in head office, the Greens involve members in key decisions and our campaigns are powered by thousands of ordinary people volunteering their time, skills and support.
SOCIAL JUSTICE
Many of the social problems we have today — crime, discrimination, disease, poverty — could be dramatically improved if we focus on eliminating extreme inequality in Australia and across the world. The Greens believe that it should be the priority of all governments to alleviate poverty and to extend opportunity to all members of society.
PEACE AND NON-VIOLENCE
Australia’s foreign policy should be based on dialogue, diplomacy and cooperation, not aggression. Trying to prevent or counter violence with violence itself will not work. The Greens are committed to peaceful and non-violent solutions locally, nationally and internationally.
