Introduction
Introduction
The following are listed (to the best of our ability) from most impactful to less.
Subsidies are currently allowing entire industries to destroy our planet, while smaller companies and family businesses are left to tackle or adapt to climate change with little to no support.
Level 4
Level 4
This page focuses on Subsidies first because the most harmful of them affect every living thing on the planet, even those of us not receiving tax payer money. Reforming these could have the greatest impact towards saving the planet with the least effort from humanity.
Level 3
Level 3
We cover taxes next because these can change how entire industries and communities choose to consume. Carbon and other emissions taxes could help spur faster adoption of alternative behaviors and technologies.
By giving tax breaks to families and smaller businesses, we can avoid hurting those with tighter resources, while still making a meaningful impact on corporations.
Level 2
Level 2
Level 2 refers to friends and family. When giving gifts it is often best for the planet and people to "give experiences" over physical things that may not be used and could just end up being clutter. When buying physical things for another person, it's best to work out what they actually need or want, and to see if it can be suitably acquired second hand (books for example), refurbished (such as furniture or a warm winter coat), or sustainably made (especially underwear or food).
Level 1
Level 1
We discuss personal finances because this type of information may have the least impact globally speaking, but can be hugely beneficial when it frees people up emotionally and fiscally. Eco-friendly spending habits are also human-friendly, meaning the can benefit those around us, but also help support us with our personal goals.
For example saving money instead of falling for overconsumption may give someone enough extra money to invest in eco-friendly upgrades, which in turn can bring down that person's cost of living. These types of choices can accumulate to a point where expensive investments can be within reach even for those who may have started out with poor finances.
Subsidies
Subsidies
"Subsidies are intended to protect consumers by keeping prices low, but they come at a substantial cost. Subsidies have sizable fiscal consequences (leading to higher taxes/borrowing or lower spending), promote inefficient allocation of an economy’s resources (hindering growth), encourage pollution (contributing to climate change and premature deaths from local air pollution), and are not well targeted at the poor (mostly benefiting higher income households). Removing subsidies and using the revenue gain for better targeted social spending, reductions in inefficient taxes, and productive investments can promote sustainable and equitable outcomes. Fossil fuel subsidy removal would also reduce energy security concerns related to volatile fossil fuel supplies." - International Monetary Fund

Don't Fall for Overconsumption
We are constantly bombarded with advertisements and pressure to use shopping as "therapy" despite the evidence that these are increasingly problematic behaviors.
Invest in Efficiency
Invest in Efficiency
Sometimes you have to spend money to make or save money. Some of the biggest sources of emissions and pollution are also our biggest living costs.
Insulation
Insulation
Heating and cooling are generally the biggest energy users, emitting most of our at-home/non-dietary emissions, while gobbling up a large chunk of cash as our seasons get more intense. By investing in better insulation (for example walls, attics, or multi-paned windows), we drastically reduce our monthly energy needs.
Energy Efficient Appliances
Energy Efficient Appliances
We can reduce both energy and water use by investing in eco-friendly appliances. These can cost a bit more up front, but the long-term benefits include lower future bills and a healthier planet.
Travel
Travel
Everyone needs to travel whether it's occasional trips to buy necessities, daily trips to work or school, of even the occassional long-distance adventure. How we choose to travel can have a big impact on both our finances and the environment.
Private vs Public
Private vs Public
Private vehicle ownership (cars and pick up trucks for example), are not only a massive waste of resources, and source of pollution, but they're also terrible for your wallet. We're supposed to pay thousands for a the vehicle itself, then yearly maintenance, license fees, insurance, with some places charging extra to drive in certain places and of course our tax money paying for all the damage these vehicles do to our roadways and bridges.
Public transportation on the other hand may charge a fee, but it is generally more efficient (more so when there are more riders and particularly so when public transport is renewably powered), and is almost always more affordable than private vehicle ownership.

Cost of Traffic on Communities
Cost of Traffic on Communities
In addition to the health costs caused by communities breathing polluted air since "Tail-pipe emissions are akin to "wildfires that are happening on our own streets", said New York's governor Kathy Hochul". She also pointed out that "Working hours lost sitting in traffic equate to around $20bn [£15.8bn] a year, she added; "a complete waste". " - BBC
Active Transport vs Passive Transport
Active Transport vs Passive Transport
Active transport options including walking, bike riding, skateboarding, canoeing, or any other mode that uses your own energy to move. These have been scientifically linked to better health (mental and physical), money saving for movers/increased spending for areas with safer/slower travel routes, reduced crime, reduced pollution, reduced wear on roadways, and stronger/safer communities.
Passive transport tends to cost more than passive options, cause health problems due to increasing sedentary living habits, and creates higher maintenance fees for surrounding communities, meaning higher taxes. When a fast moving road cuts through a community, this can cause irreparable harm both by physically dividing healthy communities, and by increasing health problems from fumes, collisions, as well as noise and light pollution.
Donate to Those You Trust
Donate to Those You Trust
This site is packed with organizations from around the world, but we encourage you to always do your research before giving to any organization.
We recommend starting with their own site or other media such as pamphlets or even talking to or working with them yourself if possible to assess their effectiveness and sincerity.
There are also 3rd party resources such as Charity Watch which can give you an idea of the organizations' spending, ethics, and other metrics. Even these can be a little tricky to interoperate, as some major corporations can get a good rating for programs that may be more of a greenwashing scam than doing much good. Other times it may be hard to research an organization bellow a certain size or age.
So dig for evidence and if something feels off, trust your gut!

Leaving a Will
Leaving a Will
Since we can't take anything of value when we die, one of the best things we can do is to include one or more charities in our final will or even set up a trust.
By donating land, money, or other assets when we die, conservation and other groups can carry on the work we care most about.
Consider donating land to conservation groups, equipment to any group that can use it, while funding can easily be used for education, legal justice, funding clean up projects, and much more.
Offset Your Emissions
Offset Your Emissions
Be super cautious about carbon offset scams!
Many companies have jumped onto the offset bandwagon without taking the time to ensure their programs are doing more good than harm. There's been a huge lack of oversite in this sector, which has focused heavily on mass reforestation projects which then totally failed, often causing more ecological harm, instead of the promised good.
For this reason, we've tried to focus on finding carbon offset programs that can remove more emissions than trees (such as bog protection and restoration), or which help communities reduce their emissions in ways that they would have otherwise struggled to pay for on their own. For example solar panels for schools with limited funds and plugging gas wells which are uncountably spewing methane.
Check out our Offsets page for a short, but growing list of offsetting programs that seem well thought-out and practical compared to the average offset scam.

GOGEL's forward-looking data on companies’ expansion plans makes it easy to assess the credibility of transition strategies and enables its users to take the right steps to become responsible climate actors."
Global Energy Ownership Tracker "provides information on the chain of ownership for various energy projects. The data maps each level of the chain from the direct owner (as in, the lowest-level identified owner in the chain of ownership) up to their highest-level ultimate parents (e.g., corporations, investment firms, and governments). Ownership links are reported with the percentage of ownership, including owners that have controlling interest as well as those with minority, non-controlling interests (if over a threshold of 5% ownership)."
The Private Equity Tracker "is part of a multi-organization initiative known as the Private Equity Climate Risks (PECR) project, which investigates the role of the private equity industry in the climate crisis. As a part of this project, GEM analyzes the social and environmental impacts of fossil fuel infrastructure to provide insights on the industry’s role in the climate crisis. GEM collaborates with The Private Equity Stakeholder Project (PESP) and Americans for Financial Reform Education Fund (AFREF) in a research consortium to investigate private equity investments in energy companies and related assets. A key aim of this project is to demand better accountability in the private equity industry through reports and other campaign activities, highlighting discrepancies between private equity firms’ publicly stated Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) commitments and their actual investment practices.
The project’s work to date has focused on eight of the largest private equity firms and their involvement in the fossil fuel industry, as summarized in the PECR 2022 Scorecard and Report. "

Climate change isn’t just an environmental problem, it’s a social, political, and economic problem, too. An economy based on extraction, exploitation, and endless growth has poisoned our air and water, intensified extreme weather events, and led to higher prices for basic necessities like food, housing, water, and energy. It has socialized the costs and privatized the gains, concentrating wealth in the hands of a powerful few, and concentrating poverty and pollution in communities with the fewest material resources to respond. This system cannot last; our planet can no longer sustain it and our people will no longer tolerate it.

Working with finance professionals and researchers like IEEFA and the Sunrise Project, TIAA-Divest! has uncovered the extent of TIAA’s fossil fuel assets as well as its ongoing greenwashing campaign. TIAA’s holdings include more than $78 billion in fossil fuel investments. TIAA has financed coal-fired power plants in the US and overseas and is one of the largest investors in Adani Ports, the notorious coal mining company. Our research also revealed that TIAA has ties to land grabbing and destructive industrial agricultural practices in the Brazilian Cerrado and other critical habitats around the world, routinely violating human rights."The Youth Climate Finance Alliance "is a youth-led and youth-centered network of individual organizers and organizations. Our team’s purpose is to serve as a resource, network, and support system for grassroots youth climate organizations across the so-called US.

We believe in growing the power of grassroots youth organizers and organizations. The young people we work with have immense revolutionary potential and power. With support, guidance, and community, they will radically change the world for the better. We see climate finance as a strategic, targeted pathway to channel the energy of youth climate organizers and target financial institutions that are directly responsible for funding fossil fuel infrastructure and projects, harming communities, our planet, and our future."

Grants to Reimburse Treaty Negotiation Loans to Indigenous Groups Who Have Settled a Comprehensive Land Claim "The overall objective is to ensure that Indigenous groups, who have repaid their comprehensive land claim negotiation loan debt resulting from their comprehensive claims settlements, are treated fairly and compensated for this amount.
The nature of the repayment of loan debt repaid to Canada as a result of a settled comprehensive land claim does not lend itself to the development of direct targets/indicators as it is funding provided for a unique one-time transaction and gesture of reconciliation, ensuring fair treatment between groups for which loans were forgiven and those groups who have already settled their claims by reimbursing any monies already repaid to Canada and providing the means with which to further their achievements in gap-closing investment opportunities.
The expected result is that all groups who have repaid their comprehensive land claim negotiation loan debt are reimbursed according to the schedule of payments contained in the letter sent to each Indigenous group.
Performance results will be reported in Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada’s (CIRNAC) Departmental Plans and Departmental Results Report.
