Prime Minister Scott Morrison is still as yet to set a date for the upcoming Federal election, but we know that it will have to take place sometime in May.

In preparation, Mamamia asked you what the most important issues are when it comes to deciding how you will vote, and perhaps unsurprisingly climate change came out as the number one priority.

So in this election special, The Quicky speaks to all three of the major parties, and an Independent candidate to find out where they stand on climate change, and what they will do if you vote them in to power.
