These were key challenges listed in the workshop:

1. Lack of tangible incentive to change
Right now, even if there is an incentive to do something, it’s not tangible, and more urgent incentives frequently take precedence.
2. Lack of transparency - greenwash vs true susta…
And regarding projects searching for help right now, there is, for example, this one by @ChrisC for an NGO in Malawi, they need to find better funding sources, maybe your marketing expertise could be of help there?
Of course, there are many more projects and we are also developing a whole deep green-themed path of Edgeryders:
EarthOS is Edgeryders’ environment unit. Our goal is to create a community of innovators around ecological living, ecosystem restoration and esp. climate change amelioration and adaptation.
This category contains the unit’s projects, as well as other discussions related to the environment and climate.

If you are joining Edgeryders because you are interested in one of our projects (like Edgeryders Festival, OpenVillage, Research Network, Participio), you better post in a category of the project to introduce yourself (you can also find the links in the top navigation bar). But if you come in independent of a project, or are unsure where to post, this is your space So:
First, create a new topic here and let your fellow Edgeryders know a little about yourself. Tell us what you want us to know about you, and what will attract support from other changemakers here.
Second, read what others have shared and leave a comment to offer some useful advice or help – or to just say hello. Just having somebody who listens and asks the right questions can unlock new, interesting thoughts that help us to move forward!
We are currently in the process of developing a new strategy for this unit and if you want you could get involved there
