Do you have a great idea for a climate change project?
Celsias (www.celsias.com) is inviting individuals, not-for-profit organisations, companies and government departments to register their climate change projects online at Celsias.
Celsias is compiling one of the world’s first registers of projects that combat global warming.
“Ordinary people are doing extraordinary things all over the world well away from the headlines,†says Nick Lewis, Celsias’ CEO. “We want to use the power of the Internet to multiply their impact by showing what a community of millions can do to address a global issue like climate change. It’s all about individuals each making a difference.â€Â
New Zealand-based Celsias is already a leading climate change blog, and it is releasing the next version of its website in July. One of several new features will be the Projects section where people will be able to register past, current or proposed climate change projects on Celsias at no charge.
Projects might include cleaning up a waterway, organizing an eco-conference on campus, providing low-emission stoves, writing a petition to stop the use of plastic grocery bags, bringing photovoltaic solar energy to villagers, or creating a website for young environmental professionals.
“We are looking for projects that will inspire others to do the same in their communities, and the possibilities are endless. By registering your project on Celsias, you will soon be able to share your knowledge, learn from others, and avoid pitfalls,†explains Lewis.
Project leaders will also be able to raise the visibility of their projects, recruit volunteers, attract resources and solicit funding.
“Think of Celsias as the ultimate climate change project planning resource,†says Lewis. “We urge people to register their climate change projects at www.celsias.com today.â€Â
