It’s the Season of Solutions!
2024 Element Meetups
Element Meetups are casual gatherings of Planeteers, organized by Element and held in-person in communities around the world during the same month. The goal of Element Meetups is to discuss the climate challenges Planeteers see in their community around that Element, and brainstorm solutions to tackle those problems. The responses from each Element Meetup location will inform the work of the Planeteer Alliance for the next year.
