Remember us? 👋
If you were following along in 2021, we ran a #ClimateChats campaign to encourage people to #TalkClimate for @COP26.
We've now gathered what we learned for @ClimaticChange_ ➡️ bit.ly/3KJ1i0j
Check out this new guide for engaging family + friends in environmental discussions that flow towards action 👇

Did you have a climate conversation for #ShowYourStripes day? Here's why you should add it to our #ClimateChats map:
1. Fight climate silence + inspire others to talk climate
2. Find solidarity + explore actions
3. Process climate emotions
Submit here ➡️ talkclimatechange.org
#ShowYourStripes today and have a climate conversation with someone – you can then share your discussion with the world via our interactive map!
This helps fight pluralistic ignorance – the (false) idea that most people do not care about climate change
talkclimatechange.org
It's #ShowYourStripes day!
🌏 Find your local climate stripes - showyourstripes.info
💬 Share with a family member/friend and discuss what climate change means for you both
📌 Add your climate conversations to the #ShowYourStripes map
@ClimateChats ➡️ talkclimatechange.org
#ShowYourStripes is about raising awareness and creating momentum for climate action.
From local changes to global trends, it's an opportunity to start a conversation on what the climate crisis means to you.

BREAKING: the White Cliffs of Dover have been illuminated with the UK 'warming stripes' for #ShowYourStripes day!
These stripes represent the UK average temperature from 1884 to 2022 with blue colours for colder years and red colours for hotter years.

Let's go beyond hoping that extreme weather "wakes people up" to #climatechange – if you're experiencing smoke right now, speak with a family member/friend about it (and check that they are staying safe)
Then add your discussion to our climate chats map: talkclimatechange.org
BREAKING: @MWCOG has issued a CODE PURPLE for DC area. "The D.C. region has not previously recorded a Code Purple day for fine particle pollution." Code purple means air is unhealthy for all people. Limit time outside and/or wear mask.
Today is #EarthDay and the start of #FashionRevolutionWeek!

Please watch her talk, send the video to a friend, and buy her new book Saving Us!

If you want to have productive and meaningful conversations with others about #COP26, telling them that they are WRONG or a "disgrace" for having a different opinion on the outcome than you is not an effective strategy.
Our advice: start a dialogue rather than an attack
One conversation can have a powerful impact, but more often than not, people need to engage multiple times to have ideas sink in and build trust.
We love @Revkin's advice on not thinking of #ClimateChats as a one-off, but a long-term engagement that strengthens communal ties.
On the last day of #COP26 take @Cambridge_Uni's @Sander_vdLinden's advice — have a conversation with friends or family about the climate crisis.
Help build the public consensus for #ClimateAction.
Engage in some #ClimateChats and add them to our map: talkclimatechange.org
It's been two weeks of high-intensity climate conversations. As #COP26 comes to an end, what are your reflections on the #ClimateChats you've been having or hearing?
Have you broken out of the climate bubble at all?

Behold the power of #ClimateChats!
My housemate just told me about her Glaswegian taxi driver who’s ‘had his eyes opened’ during #COP26, so has spent his time off this week helping plant seagrass meadows off the coast of Scotland and reading up on net zero vs zero carbon
