There are two ways to solve the climate crisis.

That may mean using alternative transportation, turning lights off when not in use, adjusting the thermostat, reduce use of plastic, and many of the 54 actions listed in this Challenge. These changes have an immediate effect, allowing us to reach our goal of net zero much sooner.
Many of us are already taking actions to some degree, but we can take MANY MORE ACTIONS to make an even greater impact.
