Nominate your unsung climate hero |
Every day, mankind comes face to face with the effects of the growing global climate crisis, its catastrophic impact – and the need for urgent change.
Last year was the hottest in human history, with nearly half the days breaching the 1.5C (2.7F) warming threshold set by world leaders in Paris in 2015. After June broke temperature records, scientists now fear that 2024 could be even hotter.
For decades, The Independent has led the way in reporting on the devastating effect of greenhouse gases and deforestation on global average temperatures, as well as efforts to cut carbon emissions.
In September, we will unveil our Climate 100 List, a roll call of people working in various fields – science, academia, activism, philanthropy, sport, travel, business, tech, fashion and entertainment – all of whom are committed to the fight against climate change.
Three out of four Independent readers consider themselves environmentally friendly and have acted to make their homes more energy efficient, to shop locally, and to adapt how they travel and eat.
With that in mind, the final five spots on the list are reserved for your input. As communities and leaders worldwide recognise that transformative action must happen now, we invite you to share stories of the unsung climate heroes in your community.
Nominations must be submitted by Friday, 16 August. The list will be unveiled in full in the third week of September. |
