Story

Hi everyone,

This Summer I'll be raising money for The Carbon Literacy Project, and spreading awareness on climate change by hiking 10 mountains across the island of Ireland! ⛰

The Carbon Literacy Project is a non-profit who are educating the world on climate change, and their mission is very close to my heart. 💚

Climate change is the biggest problem facing our generation today. Our lives, well-being and planet are becoming increasingly affected by the impacts of climate change. From extreme weather events, to food shortages and increasing health issues being felt globally, climate education and action is vital in this race against climate change. 💪

I'm excited to bring Carbon Literacy to 10 breathtaking spots around Ireland - North & South - to help spread awareness for this brilliant cause.

Can you help me achieve my goal?
