Spring Update: Eco Learn, Eco Hope, Eco Act

Since the start of Contented Earth, my mantra has been: Eco Learn, Eco Hope, Eco Act.

And underpinning those three 'columns' has been my desire to create a community of people who feels supported and inspired to take climate and environmental action.  Find out more about what's on offer...👇 Eco Learn Eco Learn.

Climate Activism: without glue, paint or slow-marching

  When you hear the words climate activism, the image that often springs to mind is a protest, often disruptive (though not violent) and with protestors being arrested - and often with members of the general public getting (understandably) frustrated and angry at the disruption caused.        (📷 @just.stopoil)   And although between 64%-75% of us are worried about the climate crisis[i], with this being the definition of climate activism, climate activism remains out of reach.    Some may not agree with the tactics used.

Seven Simple Ways to Solve the Climate Crisis*

  (* Yes, I know it's a reach, but... if we ALL did these things, then they actually, probably would solve it, just saying... )   The Climate Crisis: it's all TOO much, isn't it?   Sometimes the climate crisis is just too much to face.   Not only the terrifying reality of what we will all face if we do not limit global warming to 1.5'c above industrial levels, but also the question of "what can I do about climate change?"   It feels so complicated.   There seems so MUCH to do.
