Everyone’s story matters when it comes to action on the environment, and the project will bring together accounts of the creativity, imagination and determination we are all applying to these challenges.

Creative Climate (www.open.ac.uk/creativeclimate) invites you to start an online diary that helps to track environmental change and humanity’s responses to it. Taken together, the diaries will grow into a huge living archive of our experiences and ideas in one of the most important decades in human history.

The project will collect thoughts and stories from doorstep to workplace, from lab to garden; from international conference to community meeting – from all over the world. Many people will keep a diary as an individual, but others will want to post as a group, or as an institution. You may also want to start a diary on behalf of some thing or some place: a street; a glacier; an insect?
