Earth Day only happens once a year, but for Buttercup climate action is a year-round effort.
Part of our mission is to inspire climate-positive change in others, be it families, businesses, or individuals.
So we thought we’d share 5 things we are doing to tackle the climate crisis and build a healthier planet for future generations and the millions of species at risk.
We hope to inspire some of you to do the same! Let’s take climate action!

Educational resources for climate literacy
Climate education is key to tackling the climate crisis.
We advocate for the planet by educating young children and their families about nature and sustainability.
Our learning resources provide children with a greater understanding of nature, biodiversity and the climate – raising a generation of planet protectors!
Currently, we produce wildlife prints that encourage nature exploration!
Our online learning platform – a learning and community platform designed to educate children, families and educators about nature, biodiversity and climate literacy is in development!
