In their own words: Guardians does what others say “can’t” be done. That’s the same cloth I’m cut from — challenging the status quo, strategically going after what the planet and people really need, and steering clear of false solutions. In other words, Guardians likes to kick ass and so do I! - Hop Hopkins, Executive Director WildEarth Guardians guardians aspire to give a voice to natural landscapes and wildlife, as well as stand in solidarity with Frontline and Indigenous communities. From the Gila Wilderness to the Cascade foothills, they take on challenges that reform state wildlife agencies and reimagine the future of our public lands. As the Guardians say, we are nature, and nature is us. Help them write a new story for the American West to protect vulnerable lands, and to give voice to those who need it most. This organization is one of more than 100 nationwide nonprofits featured at EarthGives🌎org - a one-stop platform for YOU to invest in #climate action, #climatejustice and #environmentalstewardship. Together, we can boost #climate #generosity past just 2% of all giving. 💚👈Recurring donations welcome.

When you Google “Why are Texans so…” the first word that populates is: PROUD💙 The second is FRIENDLY🤠 We’re proud because Texas and Texans are a FORCE that manifests through our individualist personalities and robust economic prowess.

It's #WorldEnvironmentDay! 💚 Woodlands are the lungs of the earth and play a vital role in the fight against the climate and nature crisis, locking up excess carbon and providing a habitat for thousands of species. 🌎🌳🦋 However, the Bristol-Avon catchment has lost most of it's woodland. Here in the West of England, we have just 7.8% woodland cover, compared to 13.2% average across the whole of the UK. This is why we are on a mission to create new, permanent woodlands which will benefit people and planet for generations to come. Here are some actions you can take today to help!👇 🌳Join a volunteer day and help care for our young trees: https://lnkd.in/eWrdskPM 🌳 Donate to help us create more new, permanent woodlands: https://lnkd.in/efV2i-rD 🌳Learn more about why Avon Needs Trees: https://lnkd.in/eD3iZmkC #AvonNeedsTrees #TreePlanting #TreesForClimate #ClimateAction #NatureRecovery #WoodlandCreation

Climate anxiety is a growing challenge, especially for younger generations. We know that spending time in natural places can reduce stress and improve well-being. We also know that when we protect nature, it returns the favour by making our communities more climate resilient! Below are just a few examples of how wetlands serve as nature’s climate champions. If you're interested in how you can help save Canada's remaining wetlands, your recurring donation is one of the best ways to make a lasting difference! For as little as $5 per month, you can help create a future filled with nature, wildlife and climate-resilient communities. Better still, your donation is matched by our conservation partners—up to three times—to multiply the habitat we can save with your generous gift!

This is where it all started. Earth Gives' executive director was part of the founding of Arizona Gives Day. Year's later, she turned greater attention to climate. When she researched how much philanthropy was directed to the environment, her jaw dropped. How could only 2% of all funding be going to the most consequential issue of our time? With two kids, she knew she had to be part of the solution. So, of course, we join Arizona Gives Day to bring more resources into our budget so we can turn around and do the same for environmental nonprofits across the US. You can start here: https://lnkd.in/e4EzjYG8 Yet don't stop there. There are plenty of great environmental nonprofits also featured at azgives🌍org. And we believe there is no one solution, but many. Now we need the "many" of you. If you choose Earth Gives as one nonprofit where you will invest, we would be honored. Arizona Gives Day runs March 12-April 2. 🌎 Give. Share. Invite the others. Together, more is possible. #LateristooLate #generosity #environment #climate #climatejustice #wildlife #AZGives

The will to respond to disasters is not sufficient. Inspiring community-led organizations FUNDICCEP, MOPAWI, and Asociacion Agroforestal Brisas del Lago, have focused on preparation and resilience through strategic partnerships, including the Partnership for Disaster Recovery and Resilience (PDRR), a co-funding alliance led by the Inter-American Foundation in partnership with the Climate and Land Use Alliance, Ford Foundation, International Community Foundation, Tinker Foundation, The Philanthropic Initiative (TPI) and individual philanthropists. Through small grants, the Partnership supports strong civil society organizations that build community resilience, mitigate the impacts of extreme weather and climate, and strengthen economic, civic, and social ties among community members. The Partnership also promotes capacity building, knowledge exchanges, and peer-to-peer learning among organizations experienced in recovering from and preparing for natural disasters. #CADF2024 #Resilience #Disasters
