Despite the level of awareness about climate issues being relatively high in Finland, the Climate Advocates felt that often the messages were quite pessimistic, making many people feel unable to act. They decided to focus their efforts on giving people straightforward, practical and positive advice about things such as how to warm their houses, what products to buy and what to eat.
