Open Climate Research Collective
Providing the last push to move climate change research off of laptops and into the scientific record.
A contribution to OCRC supports:
- Climate research that adds greater understanding to the scientific record
- Scientists whose work might otherwise be lost due to the competitive nature of academia
- Open access, open source and open data that will expediate the global effort to address the climate crisis
- Diversity and equity in science
Our Goals:
In subsequent years we hope to raise more funds in order to both support more scientists and provide larger grant prizes. At this time, OCRC is operating entirely on a volunteer basis, meaning 100% of your donation, big or small, goes straight to funding climate science.
Long term, we want to help break the status quo of for-profit science journals and prove a model of science funding that escapes university overhead and administrative duties, leaving scientists to do science and expedite the dissemination of information to the world.
