Most charities want to act on the social impacts of the climate and nature crises. To accelerate action, more collaboration and funding is needed says Liz Gadd, co-lead of the Everyone’s Environment programme.  In the first year of the Everyone’s Environment programme, NPC and over 50 partners have increased understanding across the sector of the social impacts of the environmental crises. Along the way, we have also identified some common barriers to action.

This blog is adapted from a speech which Nick delivered at NPC Ignites 2023. The climate and nature crises risk creating irreversible harm, globally and here in the UK. Things are going to change, and probably sooner than we’ve previously thought. They could change for the worse – if we don’t manage to halt runaway climate change and biodiversity loss. Or they could change for the better– but only if we collectively take urgent action to shift our economy and society onto a different track.
