Climate change relay
Submitted by Penny on Fri, 25/07/2008 - 3:25pm.
GetUp has invented a new device to respond to the climate crisis. You can hold it in one hand. It combines solar power, a wind-turbine, and.... a lemon.
It's a climate torch, designed exclusively for GetUp by the creators of the Sydney Olympic torch.
GetUp! want to take the torch to a hundred towns, cities and suburbs across Australia - before arriving in Canberra, where thousands of GetUp members will present it directly to Parliament. Click below to get a first glimpse of what it looks like, and to nominate your town to host it.

After nominating your area you can volunteer to run the torch, or help organise the torch leg in your town. We can only bring the torch to your town if it will be supported on the ground, so register your help today!
