# hackers against climate change
|
||||
|
||||
## Statutes
|
||||
|
||||
**Preamble**
|
||||
|
||||
Man-made climate change is progressing almost unchecked and threatens a large part of the living beings on earth. In order to stop the climate crisis, a social process is needed, driven by a wide variety of actors. For this purpose, the Internet offers a place of almost unlimited information exchange and networking. But here, too, the "oil of the 21st century" threatens societies worldwide.
|
||||
|
||||
*hackers against climate change* is a community of living beings, independent of appearance, age, origin, species, gender or social position, who have made it their task to help shape the climate protection movement in the sense of the hacker ethics of the Chaos Computer Club.
|
||||
|
||||
We want to achieve this by using technical expertise and infrastructure independent of economic interests, such as the commercialization of data, to enable the climate protection movement to freely and securely exchange information, data and experiences. The knowledge about and the discourse on climate protection can thus be increased and shaped on a basis of trust.
|
||||
|
||||
Also the view inward, into the community which is found under the hacker ethics, is to be promoted and formed. Just as the latter, as a pioneer, promoter and critical companion of digitalization, helps to shape the future of the societies of this planet, it can and should also strive for and realize this in climate protection.
|
||||
|
||||
We all live on the same, unique, wondrous planet, with an ecosystem hitherto benevolent to man. It is our duty to preserve it.
|
||||
|
||||
