Declare
It's time for communicators to come clean.
I declare my work as a communicator will not support any activities, organisations or individuals that promote:
• the growth of fossil fuels
• the continuation of high greenhouse gas pollution as ‘business as
usual’
• deception, distraction or spin around science or climate actions.
