ACTION SHEET: List of Individual Target Actions

Download the Toolkit.

CLEANetwork.com is an online community for anyone interested in learning about, getting ideas and getting involved in climate ventures and taking target actions. Climate ventures are businesses or community efforts that are good for the climate, economy and humanity. Target actions are “products and services” of climate ventures, or things people can do to learn about, create, or do actual things that help them or others reduce emissions or increase human connections. Target actions include taking courses, joining or starting groups, or signing up for activities in the community; the possibilities are endless and more are being created every day. As rewards for taking target actions, people can earn points on CLEANetwork, earn resume rewards, lower electricity costs, find jobs, and other benefits. The links below to “CLEANetwork” stuff will take you to courses or target actions where you can earn points on CLEANetwork. Courses are actual written out lessons and a lot of reading; Intro-To-Go and Micro-courses are mostly links to external reading, but you get points for all of it. Registration is required but everything is free, provided by The Climate Economy Education Inc, a 501(c)(3) for education. The most recent, up-to-date target actions are on https://all4.earth/target-actions/. The other links listed here are for informational purposes that people may find helpful. You can join the discussion in the “Clean Energy and Jobs” discussion group, which is also connected to the online course.
