Your spark starts a current.
People didn't stop caring. They stopped believing it mattered.
ClimateCurrent brings people and companies together to fund climate work, and lets you follow what your part sets in motion.
It's our movement and yours. Your part makes the difference.
Companies can take part now. Joining for yourself opens in November.
The cycle
Caring was never the thing in short supply.
For decades people have recycled, donated, voted, changed their habits and backed climate initiatives wherever they could. Emissions kept rising.
So a belief took hold, and it was not unreasonable. The less people believe their actions matter, the less they take part. The less they take part, the smaller the collective effect. And the smaller that effect, the more the original belief is confirmed.
ClimateCurrent exists to break that cycle.
Where the money goes
Where your support goes
To start, we'll co-finance methane projects that can't go ahead without extra funding, so your support makes real work happen that otherwise wouldn't. We're choosing that partner now.
At the same time we're building towards our own first site: steady monthly support lets us finance a whole site at once with a lender, instead of saving for years.
You'll follow every step: the projects we co-finance, the site we choose, who helps finance it, and what it does once it runs.
We look for work that wouldn't happen without us.
This is how we choose.
Does our money make it happen? We look for work that would not go ahead without extra funding.
Does it work in time? We look for an effect within years, not decades.
How much warming does it avoid per euro? Among the work we can fund, we prefer what avoids the most.
If the work earns certificates, we may sell them, and what a sale brings in goes back into methane work.
How a current forms
Your spark starts a current.
Our logo is drawn from 141 dots. Orange on the left, where it starts small. Deep blue on the right, where it breaks. Read it left to right. You just read the plan.
Spark
One person decides their concern goes somewhere. Usually on a weeknight, usually after a bad headline.
Ripple
Somebody notices. A colleague, a friend, the group chat. Taking part stops looking naive.
Current
As sparks add up, the collective effect becomes visible. Belief comes back when people can see it.
You
Keep your place and follow the movement. Companies can take part now, with their own page on Teal Pages.
Why methane
Methane works fast. So do the cuts.
Methane leaves the atmosphere in roughly a decade. Cut it now and you slow warming within the years you will live through.

The warming from a tonne of methane, compared with a tonne of CO₂, over the 20 years after release.
Methane ignores borders. It spreads through the air we all share, so a cut in one country slows warming in every other.
