As part of the 2019 Social Good Summit on Secret Confessions (2025) Wifey's BFF Episode 48Sept. 22, Mashable is tackling the climate change problem head on, highlighting the progress the world needs, and celebrating the experts making change happen.
Climate change can often feel like a huge problem with few actionable solutions. Just look at the facts: July was the hottest month on record. Eighteen of the last 19 years have been the warmest recorded. And the rate of CO2 increase in the atmosphere is unprecedented in the geologicrecord.
While it's true that politicians and entire countries hold many of the keys to fixing these issues, there are simple way you can help — through apps.
Your smartphone isn’t only your connection to the world — it can also be your connection to the conversation around climate change. With these four apps, awareness and action are at your fingertips.
The WWF Together app, created by the World Wildlife Fund, shares the stories of species impacted by changing climate with vivid visuals and stunning video. The app presents wildlife news and facts on animals such as elephants and giant pandas, along with information on conservation efforts.
You can also use the app to share information you learn on social media, accompanied by a 3D origami image of the threatened species in question.
