We’re so glad you’re here! Click on each post to see the full text! 🌍This space is for people who care deeply about the climate crisis and want to move from confusion or overwhelm → to clarity, confidence, and meaningful action. You can comment on other peoples posts Once you have five points you can post your own posts. To get five points... a) Do the three onboarding actions. (1 point) b) Drop a comment in introductions, who are you and why are you here.

Complete the questionnaire so we know where you’re starting from. (Click this link) 2. Introduce yourself in the Introductions space. 3. Explore the Roadmap post on the "About" page to see how our stages of growth work — from 🌱 Seed learners to 🌍 Ecosystem change-makers. 4. Ask your first question in the Questions section— it can be as simple as “Where should I start?” 5. The answer to that is in the tab "Classroom" -> Level 0 The Backstory Over time, you’ll discover resources, see what others are doing, and share your own journey. And remember: every question you ask helps spark ideas and learning for everyone. This isn’t about doing everything alone. It’s about building solutions together. 💚 Welcome aboard! — Richard

I'm a retired IT guy who still creates and uses his own Windows apps and maintains two websites. I've begun to dabble in AI. I like to do things myself as much as possible, and maintain a workshop mostly for the fun of making tools rather than actually making things. However, that also affords me the opportunity to fix things that others would just throw away, like re-gluing soles on my shoes, fixing a dropped laptop (although I finally gave up on that project after installing a new drive, keyboard and battery) and plastic welding broken plastic like a garbage bin. I try to improve rather than merely maintain my body and I'm rather proud that I can do some things my yoga instructors can't do. So while I feel I have a handle on not polluting the Earth by reusing, repurposing and recycling, I'm a bit lost when it comes to mitigating Climate change - after switching to LED lightbulbs, insulating the attic and reducing unnecessary travel: what's next? I'm going to look for help in the Questions section - see you there!

Welcome! 🌍 To keep our conversations easy to follow, everything is organised into categories. Think of them like rooms in a house — each with its own purpose. Here’s where to share: 🌱 Introductions This is where new members introduce themselves. Share a little about who you are, what stage you’re at on the climate journey, and what brought you here. We’re excited to get to know you. 💬 Questions Your space to ask anything about climate change, action, or this community. Big or small, simple or complex — if you’re wondering, others probably are too. When you see a question you can help with, jump in! 🙌 Just remember: answers should be respectful and backed up with real data, links to established sources, or books whenever possible. That’s how we build trust and reliable knowledge. 📚 Resources & Learning Have a great article, book, documentary, tool — or even a person worth following (authors, bloggers, scientists)? Post it here. Add a note on why you found it valuable so others can benefit. 🚀 Action & Wins Tell us what you’ve done — whether that’s signing a petition, changing your travel habits, having a conversation with a friend, or leading a local event. Every action, big or small, inspires others. 🔑 Insights & Teachings Here you’ll find posts that highlight key ideas, lessons, and myth-busting insights from our roadmap. These are reference points you can return to anytime. Feel free to add your reflections or experiences in the comments. 📊 Solutions That Work This section is for detailed case studies and replicable projects that are moving the needle on the climate crisis. Please include data, outcomes, and steps so others can learn from and adapt what’s working. 🌍 Community Updates Announcements, events, challenges, and milestones live here. Check this space regularly to stay up to date with what’s happening in the community. 👉 Don’t overthink where your post belongs — just do your best. The important thing is sharing, asking, and joining the conversation. 💚

Before we dive into the main course, I’ve released Lesson 0 – What Is Climate Change and Why Am I Teaching You About It? This first lesson lays the foundation. We’ll look at why it’s been called global warming, climate change, and the climate crisis, and how human activity has pushed us off nature’s rhythm. Through history, science, and personal stories, you’ll discover where the problem began, why it matters right now, and why the future depends on the choices we make. Start with this Course

I’m excited to share that the full course roadmap is now set up in the classroom! You can now see all six levels — from Level 0: The Backstory through to Level 5: From Individual to Collective Action. Each level builds step by step: 🌱 Level 0 – The Backstory: How it all began 🍃 Level 1 – The Science of Climate Change: What we know and how we know it 🌿 Level 2 – The Impacts We Face: How it affects us here and now 🌳 Level 3 – The Solutions That Work: Real actions already making a difference 🌲 Level 4 – Becoming a Change-Maker: Finding your voice and influence 🌍 Level 5 – From Individual to Collective Action: Scaling impact together Right now, only Level 0 is open — the starting point for everyone. The other levels are placeholders, giving you a clear view of what’s coming next. Each one will unlock as we move forward together. 👉 Take a look in the classroom, explore Level 0, and drop your thoughts or questions below.👉 Which upcoming level are you most excited about? This is just the beginning — together we’ll move from learning to action. 💪🌎
