CATCH
CONSCIOUS AIR TRAVEL AND COMMUNITY HEALTH ALLIANCE
Welcome to the CATCH Alliance
Conscious Air Travel and Community Health Alliance
Our Mission: Fly Less – For a Flourishing Future
Air travel connects us, but its costs—in noise, toxic pollution, and massive climate emissions—are borne by our communities and our planet. The CATCH Alliance is a powerful movement dedicated to reducing the negative impacts of the aviation industry by demanding policy change and championing low-impact travel choices.
We believe that a truly Flourishing Future is one where community health is protected, the climate is stable, and conscious travel is the norm.
FLY LESS
Flight Path To A Flourishing Future
The Conscious Air Travel and Community Health (CATCH) Alliance is a powerful national movement dedicated to solving the immense negative impacts of high-volume domestic air travel. We are reframing the conversation from "giving up" flying to "gaining" a better future for ourselves, our communities, and our planet.
Our campaign, Fly Less – Flight Path to a Flourishing Future, is not about grounding the country; it's about empowering every Australian consumer—as individuals, residents, businesses and employees—to make deliberate, high-value choices that protect local health, stabilise the climate, and enrich the travel experience locally.
The Problem We Solve
Environmental & Health Damage (Noise, toxic air pollution, over people and their homes, climate emissions directly linked to frequent flights).
Corporate and Consumer Carbon & Cost (Expensive, high-carbon short-haul flights that drain budgets and inflate corporate and consumer environmental impact)
Overtourism & Lost Local Identity (Mass air-enabled tourism that causes overcrowding, drives up costs, and pushes residents out of their own local areas).
The Flourishing Future (The Gain)
Quieter, Healthier Communities: Lower rates of stress, better sleep, and cleaner air for millions of Australians, directly resulting from fewer overhead flights—a win for all local consumers.
Strategic Business Leadership: Corporations achieve significant climate goals while lowering operational costs and increasing employee well-being.
Enriched Personal Experience: Travelers gain enriched, less rushed, and more meaningful journeys. Simultaneously, locals (as consumers of their own community amenities) reclaim their right to enjoy their quieter, healthier, homes, cohesive communities, and lifestyle.
The Three Pillars of the Flourishing Future:
Driven by Conscious Consumerism
The CATCH Alliance achieves its mission through a multi-track strategy that transforms systemic problems into opportunities, with consumer choice at its heart:
