reaching out and getting involved

Right! So now that you have gotten started on the road to awareness and adaptation you may want to find out more or volunteer to be part of the movement. I’m super keen to lighten the load of responsibility, hence this website’s creation. If you are interested in finding out more or helping (no pressure to actually do anything if you decide not to!) please do get in touch.

Basically, I’m just one individual doing what I can and hoping like hell she can encourage her local community to join together and do our best to help each other adapt to whatever our future will look like. Whilst I’ve done a fair bit of reading, I’m not claiming to be an expert by any means, I’m merely putting together puzzle pieces as I find them. You will hopefully have your own to join in with mine!

It can be really hard to have conversations with others about climate change and the anxiety or uncertainty you may feel. I know sometimes I feel like I’m walking a parallel universe next to others – me looking around quietly panicking thinking ‘Hello? Is anyone else seeing this?’ and other people carrying on like everything is proceeding as normal. It’s not their fault, it’s just that awareness comes at different times to different people, but the time has more than arrived when we need to face the realities of what our combined actions have created.

Hopefully I’ve inspired you a little, instead of scaring you away, and I hope to meet some of you soon.
