Climateer
Making sense of the challenge of climate change
About Climateer
Climateer is a blog analyzing climate change mitigation from a systems perspective. We explore questions about how to most rapidly reduce global greenhouse emissions. My name is Steve Newman. I started Climateer in October 2021. I’m a software engineer, and my claim to fame is co-founding Writely, the startup that became Google Docs. I also founded or co-founded Scalyr and a number of other companies, with varying degrees of success. :-) In November 2022, the team grew to three part-time contributors: - Eliana Schwartz is a Senior Product Manager at WattBuy, working on home electrification and decarbonization. She is passionate about contributing to research that helps demystify climate and energy data. Her LinkedIn is here. - Janki Patel works with firms on bringing sustainability into their business strategy. She recently graduated from UC Berkeley's MBA program, where she focused her time on trying to understand the intersection between equity and climate change. You can connect with her on LinkedIn.

Climate actions
Steps this helps you take.
Expand your impact by inviting a friend to join the Climate Guide. Together, you can learn, act, and make a significant difference in tackling climate change. The more people we reach and involve in climate action, the greater the collective impact. Your invitation could set off a ripple effect of change.
Sharing your sustainability and climate action journey is very powerful. Studies show that when one home installs solar panels, their direct neighbours are more likely to also install solar panels. Especially people that trust you are likely to adopt habits and practices of you and vice versa. This is huge. Simply share your positive experiences with sustainable alternatives, your struggle and fear about the climate crisis. No need to directly convince people. Sharing your feelings and positive stories is often enough to spark action in others.
