Description
A channel for videos brought to you by the CARE Climate Change Information Centre (supported by CARE International's Poverty, Environment and Climate Change Network)
CARE seeks a world of hope, tolerance and social justice, where poverty has been overcome and people live in dignity and security. Climate change poses the single greatest threat in history to achieving our vision.
The impacts of climate change are already destroying livelihoods and aggravating financial, political, social and environmental inequities. Without urgent action, this could make it impossible for poor and marginalised people to reach a wide range of development and justice goals.
There is still time to avoid the worst impacts of climate change and prevent human suffering on an unprecedented scale, but we haven't a moment to lose.
CARE's response to climate change is rapidly growing to reflect the scope and severity of the challenge. Our overarching objectives are to empower poor and marginalised people to take action on climate change at all levels and to build knowledge for global change.
In keeping with our core poverty-fighting mission, CARE is pursuing these objectives through the following areas: global policy engagement, adaptation, making carbon finance work for the poor and organisational change. We emphasize social justice, gender equality and empowerment in everything we do.
