Community Update [COMMUNITY UPDATE] Images + Security + Allowed Content

3 Upvotes

Hello - In an effort to forge a better community we are making a few adjustments to the allowable content and posting rules. The changes are listed below, and are effective immediately:

CONTENT

  • Articles that report positive news about climate action will be allowed. The article MUST DISCUSS something that has happened, e.g.:
  • Increased solar installations, new nuclear plant performance numbers, results of forest planting initiatives, etc.
  • We will evaluate how this changes the content that gets posted as well as engagement. We will adjust as needed to keep the subreddit on message.
  • Comments will now allow the posting of images.

MODERATION

  • Crowd control has been enabled to help fend off a rise in troll and bot-like behavior. This affects both Posts and Comments.

If you have any other feedback or suggestions for changes to help improve the sub and keep this a good place to discuss Climate Action, please message the mods. Thank you!

Could not agree more.....we need to move from "alerting" to "participation" with residents. Train citizens to protect themselves and their neighbours during the first critical hours of a crisis, and use two-way communication so community knowledge feeds into official risk assessments.

And we need to pair digital tools with low-tech alternatives and support so older and vulnerable people aren't left out, and work with civil society and local businesses.
