We all know that by incorporating local area community views into climate policy can lead to more sustainable actions and better climate outcomes. That's why we at .id have created a Climate Change Survey to help councils understand their community's views regarding climate change. To introduce this new service, we are hosting online information sessions for both Metropolitan and Regional/Rural Councils. Join us on February 13th at 12 pm for the Metropolitan Council Webinar or on February 14th at 12 pm for the Regional/Rural Council Webinar. Register now to learn more about how we can work together towards a more sustainable future. #climatechange #localgovernment #sustainability #communityviews #climatepolicy #advocacy

Why I Quit Climate Advocacy 🥲 Speaking with some colleagues a few months back, I found out that only two out of ten youth (I mean graduates) know what climate change is. Sadly, 90% of those that know have no idea what to do about it. Even our country lacks sustainable policies to combat climate change effectively. Now is the best time to roll our sleeve and start taking action towards restoring our planet. SOMETHING MASSIVE IS ON THE WAY #NGYouth4sdg #Climateaction #SustainableEnvironment

Join the Mass Climate Action Network as they delve into the crucial link between climate resilience and climate justice. Understanding how these areas intersect is essential for effective organizing. It’s vital for climate mitigation and adaptation advocates to unite for a stronger climate justice movement. Leading the discussion is Reverend Vernon K. Walker, the Climate Justice Program Director for Clean Water Action and Associate Minister at Massachusetts Avenue Baptist Church. Rev. Walker brings over a decade of experience in social justice organizing, with a focus on racial and climate justice.

Of course effective advocacy takes time. But we are effectively advancing smart climate policies at all levels of government and driving systems-level, lasting change. That's powerful. If you have just one hour to invest in climate advocacy, we promise that your time spent accomplishing even one Climate Changemakers Action Playbook will be time well-spent. And stepping up to get involved in this effort might be simpler – and more influential – than you might think. Climate Changemakers is equipping busy, climate-concerned individuals in every U.S. state to be civically engaged on climate. Join our growing network and own your power.
