Grants
The profits from A Tree for Antarctica are to be distributed to organizations fighting the climate crisis that we consider to be effective in the enormous effort required to restore the earth to carbon neutral emissions. The faster we get to that goal the better, in order to save all creatures – including our next generations – from as much of the devastation caused by runaway climate change as we can. These distributions began with our first grant being awarded to CCNow.
With great pleasure, I would like to introduce our second recipient to you! I am pleased to announce the Second Award Grant from the proceeds generated by the sales of my novel A Tree for Antarctica. This time the award goes to: THE CLIMATE REALITY PROJECT!

THE CLIMATE REALITY PROJECT.
In 2007, Al Gore started the Climate Project in Nashville, TN, to amplify his own work educating the public about climate change. I was among some of his first trainees. Now called The Climate Reality Project, the corps numbers over 42,000 people across the world who are trained to speak, organize, and work for creative solutions for the looming climate crisis we all experience. These workers help others achieve hands-on solutions for the everyday climate issues they face, plus help educate policy makers and the public about climate science and about possible solutions. The focus on education is why this award is given.
