There is another group of Grandmothers acting in Germany: OmasForFuture.de They developped a Climate Quiz of 24 questions and answers. In German, of course. It is permitted to translate the quiz in another language.
There is also a little group of grandmothers acting in Holland; waterland.omasforfuture.eu They translated the German Quiz in Dutch.
Hi There
Very good idea to gather names and activities of organisations of Grandparents that work to fight climate change (Global Warming).
I’m Harold from Norway, active member of the Norwegian Grandparents Climate campaign (https://www.besteforeldreaksjonen.no/about-the-grandparents-climate-campaign/ which is the correct name in stead of Grandparents against Climate change listed above. I also participate in their sisterorganisation in the Netherlands. Both organisations do a lot, both towards the public, corporations and governments and it is also fun to participate. We could achieve even more if we had more members – more members, more power.
You could add the following grandparental organisations;
https://www.grootoudersvoorhetklimaat.be/ In Belgium
https://grootoudersvoorhetklimaat.nl/ In the Netherlands
IN Oakville, a grassroots Feminists for the Future have started a new group titled Grandmothers Act to Save the Planet (GASP). We have a one pager to describe our Climate Actions both Personal & Political. Last night Oakville Council announced a ‘Climate Emergency”. A first step to the real challenge : concrete Action.
We love to be connected to “Worldwide Grandparent Action Groups”
