Our Mission
Tweed Climate Action Network seeks to make it as simple as possible for locals to take action to address climate change.
We're here to help you find a community group to join, a passion project to sink your teeth into, or an event to attend and have fun!
If you're keen to set up your own project or community group, we can connect you to volunteers or expert advice from the TweedCAN Brains Trust.
We live in one of the most beautiful parts of Australia, something we want to protect for future generations to enjoy. Help make a difference by joining our growing network.

Make a difference
"Most Australians now believe in climate change but live like they don't. How long can we pretend it's not our responsibility? Everyone has a role to play."
Conal Hanna, TweedCAN chair
"By connecting our community through small actions and projects we build the strength to create real change."
