The Full Story

Welcome to Challenging the Climate Crisis. My name is Alara, and my goal is to share the untold and invaluable stories of people around the world that are combatting climate change. At the end of the day, climate change is undeniably very different from what humanity has faced so far. It is - and will - affect everyone, no matter location, age, economic status, or political affiliation. Consequently, it has gained momentum as one of the most important issues facing the international community.

 

Although national initiatives, state laws, and activists and protestors are key vanguards in the fight against climate change, I think it's time that a different group of people also get the spotlight. I'm referring to those around the world who are working to fight climate change in their daily lives. Those who are overcoming challenges and creatively  'Challenging the Climate Crisis' every day. It is these actions that will make the biggest impact, especially if we can follow in their lead.

​

As I have mentioned, all of earth's human inhabitants will have to chip in for their to be sustainable and long-lasting change. However, no one is a bigger advocate of balance than I am. It's unreasonable to shame others for their habits or to request that people make drastic lifestyle changes. That's not the point of the CCC, in fact, its the very opposite. We're here to learn together how we can make small and sustainable, but still impactful, changes. We're here to celebrate and learn from other's efforts and triumphs, and bring positivity to the climate change movement.
