"Your password is not strong enough"
It's ok, password, don't listen to them. You're perfect the way you are.

We live in such an individualized society that we often focus more on our personal carbon footprint (the emissions associated with what we eat, how we travel, where we live) than on our climate shadow: how we interact with and influence those around us.

Yet, how does any system change? It changes when people within that system advocate and call for change.

That's why long-time climate activist @billmckibben says, "the most important thing an individual can do right now is not be such an individual."

And that is why I'm convinced our voices are the most powerful tool we have in the fight against climate change!

Forget your carbon footprint. Let's talk about your climate shadow.

To truly evaluate your impact on the environment, you have to go way beyond recycle bins and energy bills.

@kathhayhoe Thank you for the thread, tips and resources πŸ™

I must admit that the "Carbon footprint/climate shadow" article is a nonsense to me. Of course, individual actions should be done the right way. But they are more than little steps to save climate. They are the beta test of a better world.

The example of a climate scientist taking plane asks the following question: so can't we imagine a world where science still exists while plane travels are banned?

@kathhayhoe Greta Thumberg is used as an example as someone with a great climate shadow. And that's true πŸ‘

But how many climate activists cross the Atlantic Ocean by sail to give a speech about global warming, like she does? Her "climate shadow" works also because she pays attention to her carbon footprint, so her message becomes listenable. It's not like Hollywood actors giving lessons before taking their yacht and private jet.

Big thanks for the boosts of my post this morning
I'm really, really struggling for cash at the moment and can't work a regular style job so if you could use some ND friendly, ethical social media training I have a shop: https://socialmediaforhumans.club/shop/ .

Boosts and telling of your business owning friends who might find what I do useful also super appreciated.

Hoping to get help applying for PIP but that's going to be a long process and I have a lot of trauma from being assessed fit for work by ATOS despite my GP and psychiatrist saying I absolutely wasn't.
