At the end of every episode of this show, we give you all calls to action – things that you, our listeners, can do to address climate change. This week, we’re giving ourselves some calls to action, and setting climate action New Year's Resolutions. Oddly enough, they have to do with rats, poutine, Delia’s jeans, and more. Also, Mr. Beast is back with another environmental stunt, and we’ve got an update for you.

Calls to Action

Set your climate action New Years Resolution! If you’re not sure what to do, try making the climate action Venn diagram we talked about in the episode, Is Your Carbon Footprint BS?!. And once you’ve set one, send us a voice memo about it here!
Mr. Beast is trying to raise 30 million dollars to remove 30 million pounds of trash from oceans, rivers, and beaches! Get involved at teamseas.org and check out our episode 20 Million Trees. You can also learn more about what the ocean and plastic have to do with climate change in our episodes An Origin Story of the Blue New Deal and Recyling! Is it BS?
