Australians in 60 cities and towns have taken to the streets today to ask the major political parties to make a stronger commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
The national day of action has tried to draw attention to global warming and pressure the political parties to address the issue.
The Nature Conservation Council says about 100,000 people took part in Walk Against Warming marches across Australia.
In Sydney, a crowd of about 30,000 gathered in the Domain where they were addressed by Greens Senator Bob Brown and Federal Opposition Environment spokesman Peter Garrett.
