Climate change is real and VERY serious. It's our problem, NOW, not something we can leave to others to sort out in the future.
Whether you're just starting out and want to know what climate change is, or you know what the problem is but don't know what we can do about it, Climate File is a source of high quality information, data, and analysis, written in every day language for anyone interested in the implications of climate change. We only include articles that are accurate, factual, properly sourced, and well-written.
Using only solutions that already exist TODAY, we can avoid the worst effects of climate change. We want Climate File to be a positive source of practical information so that together we can drive real change to head off the impending climate catastrophe.
More importantly, we are interested in SOLUTIONS. What can we, individually and together, do to make our planet sustainable for future generations?
