The Auckland Climate Festival is a month-long festival held in Tāmaki Makaurau every year creating space for us all to come together as a city to celebrate, catalyse and accelerate climate action.

Running for the third time this year, Aucklanders can engage in climate action through attending a diverse range of events, initiatives and activations taking place all across the region. The Festival's programme is co-curated with communities, mana whenua, rangatahi, businesses, advocacy groups and government as a whole-of-society response to the climate emergency.

To find out more, including the programme of events and theme for 2023, see www.aucklandclimatefestival.co.nz.

We have LOTS of resources on climate change, you could start with Climate change resources – planning pathways and then for more, see the wide range of resources under the climate change topic. This includes the article Climate action – looking at how we to work for change at global, national and personal/public levels.

Another way to see content is via one of these collections, below (for more on using our collection tool, see our article Creating collections):

  • Climate change – The focus is on the science of climate change and associated socio-scientific issues – including melting ice and sea level rise.
  • Climate change (HoS) – This collection supports the House of Science Climate Change Kit – but it is also useful for anyone exploring what is climate change, ocean acidification, sea and land water, how climate change affects Māori, the Earth's interacting systems, and ideas to tackle these wicked problems in the classroom.
  • Our atmosphere and climate 2020 – In collaboration with the Ministry for the Environment and Stats NZ we developed a suite of teaching and learning resources around this important report that was released in October 2020.
