Campaign focus for 2010
The working group decided to focus on two campaign areas:
1. 100% renewable energy by 2020 with a specific focus on 100% of energy on ASEN campuses
being renewable by 2015; and
2. (Non violent – needs discussion*) direct action to support campaigns to phase out coal mining
and energy generation including to stop new mines and stations being built and existing ones
being expanded.

Some of the assumptions informing the decision to focus on these areas included:
– Building on previous work, lessons and wins, including a focus on coal and mobilising for
climate camps.
– Learning lessons to scale down goals such as the 2009 one of shutting down one piece of
infrastructure in each state which was not achieved and subsequently assessed as beyond our
capacity.
– Building on ASEN’s strengths, energy and passion for direct action.
– Working within ASEN’s sphere of influence and focusing on ASEN’s core constituencies of
students.
– Complementing and supporting work by other climate movement groups.
