In September 2009 — 37,432 young Australians around the nation voted in Youth Decide (one of the AYCC’s latest projects).
You were faced with three different futures, and this is what you chose:
• 34,267 (91.5%) voted for World 3 (40% + emissions reductions)
• 2,225 (5.9%) voted for World 2 (25 – 40% emissions reductions)
• 940 (2.5%) voted for World 1 (4 – 24% emissions reductions)
An overwhelming 97.5 % of young people voted for emissions targets stronger than those currently proposed by the government.
