The founder of Plasticwise Yackandandah despaired that voters failed to take climate change seriously by opting for Prime Minister Scott Morrison who supports the Adani coal mine.

As a result she organised a protest in her hometown's main street on Friday, drawing signatures on a banner she wants new member for Indi Helen Haines to present to Mr Morrison.

"I was just so depressed by the outcome of the election," Ms Honey said.

"I said to a few friends I can't believe people don't care, but in actual fact they do, it's just the election result didn't reflect that."

Ms Honey said she wanted to show Mr Morrison "not everybody wants his coal-powered power stations".

"We want to have a world for our kids to grow up in and if we don't do something now we're going to run out of time," the mother of three adult children said.

The banner was rested against the fence of Yackandandah's Memorial Gardens for two hours on Friday morning.

Among the signatories were solar energy proponent Bobbi McKibbin, Wodonga and Albury Towards Climate Health leader Lizette Salmon and Yackandandah artist Charles Sluga.

Sluga also contributed a drawing of a whale to a sheet of environmental artwork, done by adults and children, which was collated yesterday morning.

The protest came ahead of World Environment Day on June 5.
