Communities

Communities lead the way to climate action.

While initatives to combat climate change need to happen at both a global and national scale, it's also essential to enact change at a local level. In fact, local action has the advantage of being more responsive to the specific needs of communities—and can be adapted as those needs change. These types of projects also can feel more legitimate to local communities because they're based on their unique climate concerns.
