AGO

AGO is a nonprofit accelerator. We bridge the gap between remarkable orgs and the creative, tech, and strategic expertise that can help them succeed.

Back in April, we published a little article introducing five ideas that changed the way we think about the world and current existential threats.

Here's a little recap 🌿🧵

If you think public transportation is a money-loser, wait til I show you the spreadsheet on car culture.

You will probably want to be sitting down for this.

[XR Cambridge @xr_cambridge]

Denial is going to be a central force shaping societies from here on. The rewards will go to the individuals and societies prepared to look reality square in the face, on climate, but also on broad, mounting existential risks, deal with the pain, then move urgently.

This is what the Camp Hale–Continental Divide National Monument will look like! Today's designation is a win for veterans, conservationists, and local communities.

We’re looking for a Global Director of Storytelling and Communications - someone who understands the role that stories play in shifting systems.

This person can be based anywhere in the world.

A super exciting opportunity (even if I say so myself…!) https://t.co/BZzgcGoBEb

Coastal resilience projects present an opportunity to expand equitable public access to the ocean and nature while also increasing the ability of coastal communities to withstand climate change. 🏖️🌾🌤️

[Prof. Katharine Hayhoe @KHayhoe]

As I discuss here, psychological distance is one of the greatest barriers to climate action. Over 70% of people in the US - more in other countries - are worried about climate change, yet only 8% are activated. We need to make it personal. https://t.co/wajK4zDpoE

[Jason Hickel @jasonhickel]

European governments are trying to reduce energy use. Great. But instead of telling people not to heat their homes this winter, they should scale down unnecessary corporate production (luxury goods, advertising, planned obsolescence, etc) and cut the purchasing power of the rich.

THREAD - Experts from the #GlobalSouth are often underrepresented in reporting 📰 on climate change.

To tackle this issue, Carbon Brief & @risj_oxford are launching the “Global South Climate Database” #GSCD.

Pacific Islands show us that commitment to move away from fossil fuels IS possible at a national level! At the @UN General Assembly, Vanuatu became the 1st nation-state to call for a #FossilFuelTreaty. We need to 👀 bold action from more global leaders! ⤵️

Farmers in Kenya are using #solarpower to improve crop yields. The panels help reduce heat stress, reduce water loss, grow larger crops and cut energy bills.

We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

If one of U.S.'s most widely quoted #ClimateCrisis scientists is still hopeful and optimistic -- @MichaelEMann -- you should be too. Just keep focusing on 'solutions' to the climate challenges. @CC_Yale https://t.co/XAYORDKURN
