Recommendations

  • Use Twitter as their main platform and focus posts on world news and current events.
  • Post videos showing events promoting climate activism.
  • New York is one of largest locations for supporters and they tend to talk about politics in relation to climate issues. Greenpeace should post about political figures and their perspectives to target this demographic.
  • Anxiety and sadness are the main emotions when talking about climate issues. Greenpeace should capitalize on this and turn anxiety into activism for solving climate issues.
