We had a question posed of us - how can Earth Gives Day help us reach a broader audience than our current circle? We gave an answer, but we also dug deeper, did research into the group and shared more ideas specific to their unique organization. Which leads us to this thought - if your nonprofit working in #agriculture #climate #water #farming #environment #landtrust #wildlife #climatejustice is a group with affiliates, with districts, chapters, or grassroots groups you fund - you all have a unique ability to register for Earth Gives Day and then have a handful or more of those groups add on to your profile as a "fundraiser". It would take them about 5-10 mins. It helps you all reach out further and farther from your own circle. That's the point of Earth Gives - a louder linked voice for this mission work in the nonprofit world. Funding is just 2% for this issue compared to all others. Can you change that on your own? We didn't think so. Join EarthGives.org to be part of our growing effort rally folks toward your work. Registration closes soon. What are you waiting for?

Excited to share my insights on how schools are a vital part of the climate solution. Our schools are the #1 producer of food waste in our county. Our students are working hard to reduce these impacts.

Choices & Stories.
"The path we take now will determine the future for billions." Professor Tim Lenton is one of the world's leading experts on climate change and the threats of triggering Earth system tipping points that would be catastrophic for humanity. But in the last few years he has also led a global team assessing positive tipping points in our society, economy and environment so that we can accelerate out of the climate and nature crisis. Tim Lenton is an awesome human being with a fascinating life story and one the loveliest, most brilliant people I have ever worked with. Over the past few years we have travelled a lot together taking the tipping points message to politicians and policy makers, business and finance leaders, NGOs and campaigners. Just before we came to #ClimateWeekNYC we recorded this film in our home county of Devon and I think it encapsulates Tim's story and work beautifully in a couple of minutes. Hope you like it and huge thanks to the many people and organisations who have been part of the positive tipping points journey - building positive coalitions for the things we love is the path we choose. 💚🙏😊 Bezos Earth Fund Systemiq Ltd.

What are you thoughts? What can you reduce? What change can you make? No matter how small and seemingly inconsequential, it matters and adds up. Reconsider your holiday shopping and make investments in connections, meaningful moments, and investments in climate and environmental nonprofits. Earth Gives might have a special opportunity for that shortly. Stay tuned.
Another report, another desperate call from scientists, including recent O+O guests Tim Lenton, Johan Rockström, Michael E Mann and Oreskes Naomi. But it lands at a different time. In this week, where many are still reeling from Hurricane Helene and with Hurricane Milton yet to do its worst, many in the Global North are waking up to the fact that the climate emergency is not a vague threat in the future, neither is it a terrible thing happening to other people far away, it is here and it is now. It’s unpredictable and it can touch any of us. This is the time to take our actions to the next level. The scientists report: “We fear the danger of climate breakdown. The evidence we observe is both alarming and undeniable, but it is this very shock that drives us to action. We recognize the profound urgency of addressing this global challenge, especially the horrific outlook for the world’s poor. We feel the courage and determination to seek transformative science-based solutions across all aspects of society.” The report calls for “bold, transformative change”: 👉 drastically reducing overconsumption and waste 👉 gradually reducing the human population through empowering education and rights for girls and women 👉 reforming food production systems to support more plant-based eating 👉 adopting an ecological and post-growth economics framework that ensures social justice 👉 embedding climate change instruction into education 👉 more immediate efforts to protect, restore, or rewild ecosystems We know what we need to do, the solutions exist. The actions we take as individuals matter and the actions we take as communities are even more powerful. “Today, more than ever, our actions matter for the stable climate system that has supported us for thousands of years. Humanity’s future depends on our creativity, moral fiber, and perseverance.” Now is the time. You can find the full ‘State of the Climate 2024’ report here: https://lnkd.in/d-vVGuKY

We feel him deeply. So many nonprofits fighting for the lives and welfare of people and other living things that walk this planet. #earthgivers
You may have seen this clip of meteorologist John Morales reporting on the approach of Hurrican Milton on NBC - shared widely because of his emotional commentary as he understood just how horrific the consequences of the 'monster storm' will be. Morales recently wrote about the shift in his understanding of the climate crisis and consequently in how he now communicates the weather, it's well worth a read as many will relate to the mindset shift as we come to understand the gravity of the threat: "For decades I had felt in control. Not in control of the weather, of course. But in control of the message that, if my audience was prepared and well informed, I could confidently guide them through any weather threat, and we’d all make it through safely. Today as a result of so many compounding climate-driven factors, the warming world has forcibly shifted my manner from calm concern to agitated dismay. Now I look at storms differently. And I communicate differently. I don’t need to be told “you’ve changed” to know that I’m not the same. Perhaps those who have known me as the just-the-facts non-alarmist meteorologist can’t get used to the new me. That’s why they bicker and accuse me over overhyping emerging weather threats. But no one can hide from the truth." As we come to realise we are “not the same” as we used to be, once we allow ourselves to fully comprehend the climate crisis, the question is can we be what the world needs us to be now: honest, emotional, open, willing to be wrong, willing to learn, willing to change? https://lnkd.in/e9BKeCPD

🌍 🌱 🦉 Did you know that the word "generosity" has its roots in the Latin term **generōsus**, meaning "of noble birth"? It evolved to represent the nobility of spirit and the act of giving selflessly. Earth Gives Day and all the participating nonprofits celebrate your incredible generosity for investing in climate and environmental teams working diligently on scaling renewable energy, protecting our water, air, health and wildlife, rallying volunteers to take action on climate, and so much more. Your contributions are a testament to your noble spirit and commitment to a sustainable future. The more we all pivot some of our generosity and time to #climateaction, the better off we will all will be. Protecting life on this planet deserves more than just 2% of giving. We're here to support that. Thank you to those who participated, supported, committed volunteer time, joined our learning Power Hour sessions, learned more about groups doing the work, and are now considering shifts in your own lives. Together, we can create a greener, healthier world now and for future generations. 🌿💚🐳 #Generosity #ClimateAction #EcoHeroes #ThankYou P.S. Donations continue to trickle in and we celebrate that too!
