5 ways to take action for climate

We are the first generation to know we’re damaging the planet, but we are also the generation that know the solutions. That’s why speaking up matters.

Voting is one of the most powerful ways to make yourself heard. When you have the opportunity, consider voting for someone who represents your views and who will make nature and climate a priority.

There are other ways we can all use our voices to put climate action higher on the agenda and hold our leaders to account. This could include writing to a local MP, attending local council or constituency meetings, or supporting campaigns for change.

Change can and does happen. In June 2026, after six years of pressure, we finally saw the UK government announce a new law that will help protect forests from deforestation. This is a major win and one that couldn’t have been done without the voices and help of over 60,000 of you.

Find out who your leaders are and hear from our ambassador Cel Spellman who shares practical tips on how to talk to your MP.

We may be working hard to reduce our footprint, but in the background, where we spend, save and invest our money could be funding things that harm our planet. 

Being intentional with your money can make a huge difference. You could consider:

• Switching to a greener bank.
• Speaking to your employer about your workplace pension and asking if it is invested in a sustainable fund.
• Buying from sustainable brands, choosing better quality products and buying second-hand items or repairing the things you already own. 

When we make these choices, companies see what people want. If enough of us do it, businesses are more likely to act in a better and more sustainable way.

Our amazing supporters are helping us in different ways to restore nature and tackle the climate crisis.  

• By donating to our Climate Recovery Fund, every pound goes directly towards forward-thinking projects on the four areas where we can collectively have the greatest impact. That's the Amazon, polar regions, forests, and influencing UK government policy.  
• We also have some fun and unique ways you can get involved in fundraising. Take part in one of our challenge events, run a marathon or organise a local bake sale.
• You could also think about volunteering your time to become a Walrus from Space detective. Help us from home by searching satellite images and spot walrus from space. You’ll contribute to vital conservation research and help us learn more about this incredible species and how climate change is impacting them.
