UK, France, Germany, and Australia: Help Bring Clean Energy to 1 Million People

Call on the UK, France, Germany, Australia, and Denmark to commit this year to help bring clean electricity to 1 million people.

What to know:

  • Reliable electricity means lights on, food cold, and phones charged. We aim to reach an additional 1 million people.
  • The UK, France, Germany, and Australia promised to bring power to more people. But progress is too slow.
  • We’ll hand the biggest petition possible over to the UK, France, Germany, and others on September 18.

Climate change is already affecting people everywhere — with rising temperatures, weird weather, and growing problems with food and water. At the same time, hundreds of millions of people still don’t have electricity to power lights, keep food safe, or run schools and hospitals.

This is our moment to act.

Clean, renewable energy isn’t just about cutting pollution. It’s about opportunity — creating jobs, growing communities, and giving families the power they need to thrive. That’s why Global Citizen is working to help:

  • ⚡ Bring clean electricity to 1 million people

  • 🛠️ Train 50,000 young people to work in the clean energy industry

We’re calling on the UK, France, Germany, Australia, Denmark, and the European Commission to help make it happen.

More than 50,000 Global Citizens have already signed this petition — and we’ll hand it over on September 18, during the UN General Assembly in New York. We'll show the world who’s stepping up by publishing a public tracker ahead of the Global Citizen Festival on September 27.

Add your name now. The more voices we have, the more pressure we can build. Together, we can power homes, protect the planet, and unlock brighter futures.
