Challenge for Climate

10 days. 10,000 Actions. $100,000 for Climate Impact

Climate change can feel overwhelming, but we're not lacking solutions - we're lacking the social and political will to implement them. That's where you come in.

About

This year marks 10 years of Climate for Change empowering Australians to take meaningful climate action through our Climate Conversations program. To celebrate, we're revitalising our beloved annual crowdfunder, the Challenge for Climate: 10 days of climate action that anyone can join.

Our goal? 10,000 climate actions across Australia, from having climate conversations to making sustainable switches. Set your personal challenge, get your community behind you, and help us raise $100K to power more climate conversations nationwide. Every action counts, every person matters, and together we're creating the future we want to see. 

Whether you're having climate conversations, making sustainable switches, or starting workplace initiatives - every action adds to our goal of 10,000 collective climate actions.

With a federal election approaching, this is a crucial moment to put climate action at the centre of national conversation. While Australians face multiple challenges - from housing affordability to rising living costs - the climate crisis amplifies each of these issues. Yet most people feel uncertain about how to effectively advocate for change.
