The Carbon Creed is not a book about the science of climate change, nor is it a policy brief. It's not meant to scare you, though some data might. It is written to take you on a journey through the climate narratives nestled in your head and heart.
The book is based upon the seven (7) affirmations of the Carbon Creed:
- Ethics
- Mindset
- Kinship
- Science
- Habits
- Accountability
- Equity
The Carbon Creed will help you identify and adopt the beliefs, values, and practices that lead to decarbonization. As you read and meditate on the principles of the creed, your carbon conscience will emerge.

It invites you to consider your carbon truth.
