Have conversations
All we can save circles
If you’re in the mood for climate conversations in your social circle and looking for some craft group materials, then this is the place for you. All We Can Save is a bestselling collection of essays from 60 women who are at the forefront of the climate movement. Now, as an offshoot of the anthology, the group has created All We Can Save Circles. They describe it as “a book club, but a cooler, deeper, and more extensive version.” The framework includes 10 sessions (with calming names like Reframe, Reshape, and Persist), and the animation material is free for everyone to download and start their own circle.

Scientific mothers
Founded by a group of respected climatologists (who are also moms), this organization tries to motivate everyday moms to demand solutions that save the planet for their children. “Eighty-three percent of moms are concerned about climate change in all political parties and races. That’s why I co-founded Science Moms, ”climatologist Katharine Hayhoe told me. Science Moms offers a free toolkit to help you talk about climate change with your friends and family, and also hosts free webinars on climate-related topics.
Facebook group on deep adaptation of parents
Deep Adaptation is a social movement for those who believe that climate change will increasingly threaten access to food, water and government systems and ultimately lead to the collapse of society. The movement emphasizes non-violence, compassion and “preparation” for a new future. If this resonates with you, you will find like-minded parents in this group. Post topics range from dealing with emotions to sharing links and resources to practical preparation tips.
Parents for the future
From the #FridaysforFuture movement (started by Greta Thunberg), Parents for Future is a network of hundreds of groups in at least 23 countries. They have templates for letter writing and other actions you can participate in, as well as links to more local groups. They also offer a Climate Parent Fellowship, which supports activist parents around the world. They have a strong presence in the EU and UK so if this is where you are this could be a good group to connect with.
