Climate Emergency Action Alliance: Vote Planet, formerly the Save Our One Planet Alliance, is an Australian political party founded in 2019.[2] The party is an electoral alliance between the unregistered "Save the Planet" and "One Planet" parties.[3][4] "Save Our One Planet Alliance" changed its name in 2021 to the "Climate Emergency Alliance: Vote Planet".[5]

Save the Planet was formed in 2012, and several of its members have contested Victorian state elections in the electorates of Brunswick and Northcote.[6]

The party's policies primarily focus around issues surrounding climate change, such as reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for a post-climate change planet.[4]

In early 2022, it merged with other parties to become the Fusion Party.[7]
