I Count Communities
Climate chaos in brief
Climate change will affect everyone on earth. The effects predicted by climate change scientists include:
-
sea level rises, which will drown many coastal cities and small islands
-
more extreme weather events like floods, droughts and hurricanes
-
changes in rainfall patterns, altering the timing of seasons
We can stop Climate Chaos
Together we are irresistible - together we count. Taking steps together we can do almost anything we choose.
Just
as we have polluted our world to the edge of climate chaos we also
have the resources and knowledge to save it. It comes down to what
we want, what we dream of. If we choose we can make our politicians
take the action needed.
About I Count
If you care, count. It's your voice, your choice. I Count will inspire people across the UK to take action.
I Count is the campaign of the Stop Climate Chaos coalition, the ever-growing coalition of more than 50 organisations, has over 700 years' experience working for a safer, fairer world.
Together we are millions of people - and counting.
The UK government is failing to take the necessary action to prevent the chaos that climate change will cause. That's why together we have launched the I Count campaign.
We are calling on the government to:
- Take a lead on the global stage, working for an international agreement to cut climate pollution. World-wide this must be in decline by 2015.
- Cut the UK's emissions by at least 3% year on year.
- Help the poorest countries get access to clean energy, help them cut out poverty and deal with the climate disasters they are already facing.
We will build irresistible popular pressure on politicians to act – and act fast. If we choose, we can make our politicians, at home and on the international stage, take the actions needed. And that means making your voice, your actions, count.
They cannot ignore us all.
Nothing on this scale has been attempted, but nothing else will do. It's too big – too important – for any one person, company or group.
You are irresistible, we are irresistible.
Together we really can stop climate chaos.

With our online community, at last you'll see who else is out there. You'll see who's sticking their neck out, putting on jumpers, changing leccy supplier, hassling their MP. Round the corner, on your street, in your town. Doing stuff!
And this is only the start. Soon you'll be able to do stuff like click and contact people through the map - and make stuff really start to happen. Curious?
