Climate action is easier
when we do it together.
Imagine your social media feed… but instead of adverts and bad vibes it’s packed with climate solutions, achievable actions, and incredible peer support. Welcome to the Green Squirrel online community!
The Climate Village is online home of Green Squirrel: a space for ordinary people stepping up to the challenge of climate change, supporting each other, and learning the skills we need to make a difference.
If you’ve been looking for a positive, non-judgemental space to turn worry into action then we invite you to join us.
“Since joining the community I’m actually proactively doing things now that I feel make a difference against climate change and this makes me feel better about it… I don’t ever do anything out of a sense of guilt or obligation, I try to do as much of what makes me happy as possible and this lessens anxiety more generally!”

The Climate Village is for anyone who wants to take action for planet, place and people. Whether you’re already part of the Green Squirrel community in Cardiff or you live elsewhere, you are invited to join us. All regular Green Squirrel supporters can access the Climate Village as a thank you perk.
Nope – we know that everyone’s life looks different so your level of involvement is up to you. Some people check in regularly to see what’s going on, and even volunteer to help with aspects of running the community. Others check in occasionally or when they’ve got a questions. It’s your space and you can use it however works best for you.
Yes, absolutely. Everyone’s situation is different and so the way we take climate action is different for all of us. There’s no judgement around diet, travel, consumption or anything else for that matter – all that we ask is that all members are willing to listen and learn from each other.
This community launched in 2021 as The Something Club and we changed the name in 2023 to reflect the fact that partner organisations were starting to come on board.
Yes, absolutely! Explore the community on your laptop, tablet or phone – you can download the app for the best browsing experience when you’re on mobile.
