Our Story
Until a few years ago, we saw a world concerned about “global warming.” Now, we seem to be way beyond that, facing “global boiling” as a palpable threat. While public institutions and ESG-centered organizations collect climate/environmental data, hold meetings, and execute agendas, WAW ACT focuses on “doable practices.” We gather diverse hearts and thoughts from all over the world and integrate them into practical actions.
WAW ACT engages in a diverse range of projects to encourage participation from people and organizations all over the world. We aim to help lead global environmental efforts by organizing and guiding creative efforts by people and organizations toward more viable environmental solutions. Through these efforts, we also hope to be a meaningful enabler of a world built on a stronger sense of global solidarity.
