Become a climate champion at my place of work or study
If your employer or school doesn’t already have a climate change champion or a decarbonisation plan, you might be able to help them make the necessary changes.
Demonstrating climate leadership is an important part of tackling the climate emergency. Only if we speak openly about the challenges ahead and the ways we want to approach them, will we be successful. The Cambridge Climate Change Charter would like to empower you to speak about climate change with your family, friends and colleagues, so below we provide you with the right tools to do so. We also have advice for businesses and other organisations demonstrating climate leadership – view here.

Putting your ideas into a written piece, like blog, article or letter, can help you not only reach out to people but also organising your thoughts and prioritise your efforts.
Posting your commitments and why you’re doing it, might inspire others to do the same. And motivate you to stick with it.
Speaking to people about climate change that don’t usually talk about it can help everyone to better understand the topic and how we feel about it. You can find guidance on how to talk about it online.
Taking time to understand the issue and potential solutions is important. You can find lots of resources online.
There are plenty of networks, campaigns and groups that would appreciate your support in order to tackle the climate emergency.
Engage with your community through events like a Swish, Repair Cafe or Workshop. You can find all the resources you need to organise these online.
