Pledge to demonstrate how people are more ready than governments to commit to change
This form will ask you to confirm whether or not you work in climate change as a scientist, engineer or academic as well as which targets you'd like to aim for, your name, email, affiliation (if you work in climate), town (if you don't work in climate), country, and a few other details. You can commit to as many targets as you like, from one to all of them or any number in between. Simply check the box next to the target you're aiming for.
Note that you are signing in a personal capacity and affiliations, if you have one, are for information only. For those who work in climate change, your name, affiliation, country, and your commitment to the goals will be available publicly online unless you choose to remain anonymous. Please note that anonymity is available as an option only for those working in climate change and whilst we will not publish your information online we cannot 100% guarantee that it is not accessible. For those who don't work in climate change, your name, town, country and your commitment to the goals will be available publicly online. Information will appear online after a short delay. Email addresses will be used only in relation to these goals, or if you request to join an SGR e-list for updates (see below).
About SGR
SGR (
https://www.sgr.org.uk/) is a membership organisation promoting responsible science and technology. The climate oath initiative for scientists, engineers and academics working in climate change (
https://www.sgr.org.uk/projects/science-oath-climate-text-and-signing) stems from SGR’s report on 'Scientists Behaving Responsibly: Should science walk the talk on climate breakdown?' (
https://www.sgr.org.uk/publications/scientists-behaving-responsibly), which highlighted the potential of scientists and engineers to act as role models for behaviour change and voices calling for system change in their sectors. The Fair Lifestyle Targets are an additional commitment available both to oath signatories and anyone who'd like to join in.
