Radical Care
We treat people and planet with the same deep, active compassion.
Who we are
A global collective of scientists, activists, educators, and everyday people — united by one simple truth: we all share one breath.
Our Story
Born from a single, urgent question
What if every breath we take reminded us that we're connected — to each other, to every forest, and to every ocean?
One Earth One Breath began in 2019 when a small group of climate scientists and community organisers realised that data alone wasn't moving people to act. What moved people was the visceral, shared reality of breathing the same air. We set out to build a movement that speaks to that truth — pairing hard science with the human story of a single, shared atmosphere.
Today we operate in more than 120 countries, running reforestation projects, clean-air monitoring networks, renewable-energy cooperatives, and education programmes that have reached millions of students.
Our Values
What guides every breath of our work
Science First
Every campaign is grounded in peer-reviewed evidence and measurable outcomes.
Local Leadership
Communities decide their own priorities. We resource them, not the reverse.
Radical Transparency
Open data, open books, open doors. You can see exactly where every dollar goes.
