Eastern Climate Action Melbourne (ECAM) is a community group of like-minded people passionate about restoring our world to good health where the most dangerous impacts of climate change have been avoided. 

We practice “think global, act local” that is we focus on actions we can take for ourselves in our community – focused in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, predominantly in the cities of Whitehorse, Knox, Monash and Maroondah.

We seek to increase community awareness of what each of us can do in our own homes and businesses and to advocate for strong government action to reduce carbon emissions and create a safe climate now.

A safe climate where the most dangerous impacts of global warming have been avoided, where our planet has been restored to pre-industrial health and where we and future generations live in a sustainable way.
