The Greens say the Australian Government is failing to reduce climate risks by approving the Woodside gas project.
Just days after the approval, a report showed 1.5 million Australians will be at high risk from the damaging effects of climate change.
Party leader Larissa Waters says the government is not doing the right thing.
"Australians have had enough of their safety, their cost of living and their security coming last after the profit of Woodside, of Glencore, of other big coal and gas companies that make big donations to both sides of politics and get to write their own rules. People are sick of the system being ripped against them, and favours being done for big corporations, while their very security and way of life is at risk."

A baby has died, and a young child is in hospital after a tragic accident in Sydney's south-west.
New South Wales Police say the five-month-old baby was killed after being pinned by a car in the carpark of a shopping centre.
Someone who saw the incident said it was a terrible scene.
"A baby was hit in the stroller, and another toddler was injured. And a lot of shoppers - there were a few people who were traumatised from seeing it."

Prime Minister Anthony Albanese is in Papua New Guinea, celebrating 50 years since it became an independent nation.
Other Pacific leaders and former prime minister Scott Morrison are also in Port Moresby for the celebration.
Australia has just signed a new deal with Papua New Guinea to share soldiers and possibly help each other if there is a conflict.
Mr Albanese says the deal makes the countries' relationship stronger.
"It's an upgrade in our security relationship to a treaty level, to the sort of level that we have with the United States and our important allies."

The Australian Football League is bringing back its State of Origin series after 27-years.
The AFL says the State of Origin games will begin with a game in Perth next February.
AFL Chief Executive, Andrew Dillion, says there is a strong demand for this series.
"Fans and players have been calling for the return of origin and there is a huge appetite from the footy public to see more marquee events across the calendar year. We saw that here at Optus Stadium earlier this year with the fantastic return of the Indigenous All Stars game. Origin inspires passion, state pride and draws upon year old rivalries that are essential to the history of our game."
