Best Climate Change Charities | 8 Environmental Organisations We Should All Be Supporting

As outdoor adventurers, the sheer amount of time we spend immersed in nature means we’re pretty clued up on how climate change is affecting our planet (be it through coastal erosion, changing temperatures or extreme weather). With global temperatures set to rise to 2.7 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels by 2100, tackling the climate emergency is amongst the most pressing problems of our time. The alarming nature of the situation is, in short, the main reason we’ve put together this guide to the best climate change charities and not-for-profit environmental organisations.

When it comes to being ‘green’, individual actions are important. Conscientious hikers will, for example, practise ‘leave no trace‘. Many of us will go further still, embarking on zero-waste outdoor adventures, investing in used gear, and only buying from ethical outdoor brands. There are lots of little changes that we could and should make. However, as essential as it is to adjust our behaviour, the best way to bring about tangible change is through collective action and systemic change. There are so many fantastic charities geared towards fighting back against the climate emergency, and we only wish that we could support them all equally.

For those of you who are passionate about the outdoors, here are eight good environmental charities that we’re particularly keen to recommend. The best way to get involved with them is generally through raising awareness and making donations (time to put our money where our mouth is, and all that). Where applicable though, we’ve also included projects you can participate in too.
