Why ban fossil fuel ads and sponsorships?

• They increase demand for highly damaging products

• They falsely portray companies and products as being clean and green

• They tarnish our treasured cultural and sporting groups

• They are used to maintain social licence for polluting industries

• They have helped delay climate action for too long

The latest IPCC report (ARG WG3) confirmed that marketing and lobbying by coal, oil and gas corporations is delaying emissions reduction and has largely set the public agenda about climate change in Australia.

We estimate the top five fossil fuel advertisers spent more than $230m on marketing in Australia in the 2020/21  financial year. This money continues to buy public support and shape the opinions of the media, politicians and public.
