Climate action
resources

Burnout helps no one. Where's your happy place? What do you enjoy being good at, or want to do more?

For me, I love hanging out with nerdy, undaunted-by-setbacks people, and playing "concierge" to introduce friends to cool stuff - and I've found abundant chances to do both in the climate space.

Do you relish a good crafting or home improvement project? Enjoy hosting gatherings? Feel good helping friends and family with tech stuff? There's a way to channel that into climate action for sure.

How could climate action combine with something you need or want to do anyway?

I'm hopeless with exercise, but I do bike everywhere (grocery day is the true workout). I don’t love electoral politics, but it’s a great way to show up for several causes I care about at once, including climate.

Could commuting by public transit become your book-reading time? Could you add new recipes to the dinner rotation? Or explore a much-needed career change by networking in climate fields?

You don't have to figure it all out yourself, or do it alone. What groups could you join, locally or online? Who in your life could you ask for advice, or to come along with you, or to hear how it's going? (Just talking about climate with people who know you makes a real difference.)
