Global warming and climate change are in the newsMost people are aware that humanity needs to act fast to prevent irreversible global warming and further damage to the environment. At the same time, the quality of our human climate - our experience of ourselves, our family, our neighbourhood and our society - has diminished in many arenas. Just think of the medical and social costs of stress, family break-down, poverty and conflict.
Join thousands of people to create a vast change When thousands of people focus their attention on a common intention, the effect is enormous. With the Climate Change Day campaign, even your smallest gesture can make a huge difference. More than just one dayClimate Change Day's campaign continues through the year. In addition, many people have made a special effort to improve their climate on the first World Climate Change Day, 1st December 2006. This helped more and more people discover how easy it is to do their part for climate change all year round. The resulting benefits to the environment and ourselves will be enormous.
Your input makes the differenceClimate Change Day came about because a group of motivated people wanted to give something back to the earth and to the people who live here. As you'll see from this website's many examples, it is very easy to make a massive improvement.
