Climate 200

Climate 200 is an organization that provides funding to independent candidates in Australian elections who prioritize climate action. They are newsworthy due to their significant financial contributions to political campaigns, particularly those of the 'teal' independents. Recent news highlights their substantial donations in the 2025 election cycle. For example, Nicolette Boele, who narrowly won the seat of Bradfield, received almost $700,000 from Climate 200. The organization also received a large donation from Atlassian co-founder Scott Farquhar. Climate 200's influence is significant because their funding can substantially impact election outcomes, enabling independent candidates focused on climate change to challenge established parties and potentially shift the political landscape on environmental issues.
