SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA - MARCH 10: Independent Member for Warringah Zali Steggall (2nd L) addresses attendees about "climate wars in Australia has cost us way too much" during a panel discussion on the opening day of Climate Action Week 2025 at the University of Technology on March 10, 2025 in Sydney, Australia. Climate Action Week Sydney is a series of community-led events across Sydney concerning all aspects of the climate action ecosystem. Zali Steggall and Allegra Spender are crucial figures in the upcoming federal elections in Australia, representing the Teal independent movement that advocates for climate action, political integrity, and social equity. Their success in previous elections has demonstrated a significant shift in voter sentiment, challenging traditional party dominance and highlighting the growing demand for accountability and progressive policies among constituents. They have played a significant role in reshaping the Australian political landscape at the last election, and seats which they captured are in focus for the upcoming federal election which must be held by May 2025.
