Water is one of the most visible ways climate change impacts our lives. I will spend 10 minutes learning how climate change affects water in my region and explore actions that can help people and ecosystems adapt.

I’ll take a short pre-survey to share what motivated me to join — and earn 15 points! (If I already took the survey by email, I’ll just mark this action complete to get my points.)

Biodiversity hotspots are places with many unique species that are also at risk. I will spend 20 minutes learning about one hotspot and reflect on why protecting it matters for resilience.

Wildlife observations can help researchers and communities understand and protect biodiversity. I will download a wildlife monitoring app and log 20 animal or plant species I discover.

Some species are especially important because they help keep whole ecosystems in balance. I will spend 20 minutes learning about a keystone species near me and how it supports biodiversity and resilience.

Indigenous communities have long stewarded lands, waters, and ecosystems using practices rooted in intergenerational knowledge and deep connections to nature. I will spend 10 minutes learning how Indigenous stewardship supports biodiversity and resilience, and reflect on lessons I can apply.
