This everyday job can activate climate behaviour

What if one of the most powerful climate solutions isn’t technology—but conversation?💇‍♀️ Good news: Hairdressers may be some of the most effective climate communicators we’ve been overlooking. A U.K. study shows that when salons spark climate conversations, nearly 73% of clients say they’d adopt more eco-friendly habits.⚠️ Not so good news: War doesn’t only devastate lives - it also drives massive emissions. A Climate and Community Institute analysis shows the first two weeks of the Iran conflict alone released about 5 million tonnes of carbon pollution. Rebuilding the damage will add even more.🌱 What you can do: While negative news spreads faster, it’s positive, actionable stories that actually motivate us to act.
