WELCOME TO CLIMATETILTER.ORG

Advocating For Our Planet

Welcome to the Climate Tilter, my place to share and highlight the critical issue of Climate Change. In August 2020, I went through training with the Climate Reality Project to become a Climate Reality Leader. Using their resources and adding my perspective, I hope to inspire others to be part of the solution to the Climate Crisis.
