Welcome to Be Climate Clever
An initiative led by Kids Against Plastic and supported by Rotary District 1220 with one simple aim…
… support as many people as possible in understanding the Climate Crisis and the part they can play to help mitigate it. To be part of the solution, not the problem. To Be Climate Clever.
Businesses, Schools , Rotary Clubs , Households , individuals… we all have a role to play.

So, let’s get to it!
A CLIMATE CRISIS
We are in a Climate Crisis and everyone, and everything, on Planet Earth is at risk: countries, Nations, Governments, cities, businesses and individuals.
There is a majority consensus in the science community that global temperatures are rising due to human activities – particularly the burning of fossil fuels and the release of greenhouse gases – and unless there is urgent action to significantly reduce CO2 emissions, the effects of climate change will become more severe.
Scientists also agree that there is enough time to mitigate climate change. But the time we have left is running out. If we are to avert the worst impacts of climate change global temperature increase needs to be limited to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels, and to do this global emissions need to be halved by 2030.
Time left to HALVE global CO2 emissions
THERE IS HOPE
Most people take the Climate Crisis seriously, and want to do all they can in the fight to slow down or reverse climate change.
Be Climate Clever helps different sectors start taking immediate action towards reducing their climate impact through a supportive step-by-step approach that values intent, commitment and action.
We all need to do our bit. We all need to be Climate Clever.
