Grab your violins people - the big boys of pollution are singing another sad, sad song this week.

Seven of our biggest polluters are putting on their best performance, as they try to convince our political leaders that a price on pollution will bring about the end-of-the-world as they know it. That's a performance worthy of a Logie!

So we want to send them a big message that big whingers won't be tolerated. Call on them to pay their fair share and take responsibility for their pollution. Tell the big polluters to stop whinging

The result of big polluters shirking their responsibilities will be felt by all of us. What's more their numbers just don't add up. A study by the Grattan Institute just last year, showed that the big polluters were 'crying wolf' over their exaggerated claims of economic loss.

With the help of the millions of dollars they claim they can't afford to spend cleaning up their companies, the big polluters have been running a major scare-campaign against the government's plan to price pollution. And it's just going to get worse. So we need your help.

Tell them to stop whingeing

Instead of wasting money running a dodgy campaign based on bogus figures, we think they should be preparing their companies for the transition to a clean energy economy.

Help us send them a message. Send your letter to our top seven biggest whingers and tell them you expect them to clean up their act. Go to it and send it to all your mates.
