To get the world to act on climate change we need:
1. A strong social mandate
based on common values of caring for each other and the planet, and
a foundation of common cause connecting climate action with a better future
which leads to…
2. Strong government and corporate leadership
based on a commitment to achieve net-zero emissions from every level of government and every corporation
supported by experts and peer networks
which leads to…
3. Strong climate plans
that stimulate action for net-zero emissions, climate resilience and a better future
that integrate climate action with economic development and social benefit
which leads to…
4. Our best chance to minimize climate change and create a better future for all.
To achieve these steps, we need:
1. Coordination
Common goals: A future that is net-zero, resilient and better
Common campaigns, with global to local adaptability
2. Collaboration
between climate groups
across sectors and interests
empowering action in common cause
sharing ideas and resources freely
3. Creativity
in strategic planning
in marketing and campaigns
in integrated climate solutions
Which leads to two important questions:
1. How can we make this happen?
2. How can you help?
This is how we can do it.
Let’s start with the assumption that the majority of people who visit this site believe in the need for decisive climate action (acknowledging that some other folks will see the site as a threat to their world view):
Maybe half of you won’t get it. You may work with a different theory of change. That’s okay, keep going!
There’s probably another 45% who may get the concept, but aren’t in a position to help. That’s fine too.
That leaves about 5% who get it and have the creative energy or resources to help develop ideas. That’s where we start. and it can happen either by design, or organically, depending on who you are and what you can contribute,
By Design
If you are a thought leader, funder, or a creative mind in your community, be it local, regional, or global, you have the potential to design projects and campaigns that can help span organizations and build collaboration to achieve our common goals.
Organically
If you are a communications designer, community organizer, or a social media influencer, you can take the ideas in this website and run with them. Be creative. Share your work and your successes.
