Over the past year, we’ve been proud to work with the Coral Reefs of the High Seas coalition - a global alliance dedicated to protecting ocean life beyond national jurisdiction. Just 1.5% of the high seas are currently safeguarded and the coalition is championing priority sites, including the Salas y Gómez and Nazca underwater mountains in the Pacific - ecosystems rich with deep sea corals, vital migratory pathways and cultural heritage. To support this mission, we partnered with the coalition to: 🪸 Develop a communications strategy aligned with advocacy goals and create a distinctive brand to help their work stand out in the ocean conservation space. The visual identity focuses on the importance of colour, using bright and engaging gradients to communicate, paired with strong typography. 🪸 Design and launch a new website, alongside creative assets for the coalition’s LinkedIn presence, aligned with the High Seas Treaty entering into force. 🪸 Support media engagement and content production around key global moments, including the UN Ocean Conference. This coalition was convened by ocean visionaries including Sylvia Earle and Kristina Gjerde, and is led by Conservation International alongside members Oceana, The Pew Charitable Trusts, Blue Nature Alliance, IDDRI, ESMOI and Marine Conservation Institute and others. Now with a new brand, website and social presence, the coalition’s mission - and the ecosystems it seeks to protect - are gaining greater visibility and momentum. Thank you to the team for all your hard work!

The new Julie’s Bicycle brand and website is now live – and it marks a bold new chapter for one of the most respected forces in the creative climate movement. We’ve worked with the JB team since early 2025 to deliver a full brand and website transformation. The goal? To make their identity as powerful and energising as their mission: putting arts and culture right at the heart of climate action. They’ve been doing this for nearly 20 years, but needed a new brand positioning, visual identity and website to stay as impactful as ever to tackle the climate, nature and justice crises we face today. Inspired by their music industry roots, we developed a new positioning and visual identity that feels loud and proud, echoing the urgency of the climate crisis and the power of creative action. The new site is accessible, intuitive and inclusive, with sustainability embedded throughout, from its design principles to where it’s hostied. This exciting project - involving a re-brand, brand architecture and guidelines, message development, new website and web migration - is something we’re incredibly proud of. A huge thank you to all the JB team for your collaboration and trust to bring this new chapter to life 📣 Find out more about the thinking behind the new positioning and brand: /news/the-new-jb-brand-accelerating-climate-action/ /

2025 was officially the third hottest year on record, according to Copernicus ECWMF’s Global Climate Highlights Report which launched yesterday with the help of Greenhouse. The report offers one of the clearest assessments yet of where the planet stands against long-term climate thresholds. The findings show: 🔥 2025 was the third warmest year on record. 🔥 That the past three years have averaged more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels for the first time – a milestone that underscores how rapidly global warming is progressing. 🔥 The past 11 years have been the 11 warmest on record. Drawing on coordinated analysis from leading climate scientists, the report provides robust evidence of long-term warming trends, record polar temperatures, declining sea ice, and the growing impacts of heat stress and extreme weather events across regions. The report has dominated the global media landscape across the last two days, featuring on @BBC , @CNN and @ITV , and online articles in @the.independent , @nytimes , @Bloomberg , @apnews , @NBC , @aljazeeraenglish and @abcnews among hundreds of others. 📑 Read the Global Climate Highlights report: https://climate.copernicus.eu/global-climate-highlights-2025

Every January, the Oxford Real Farming Conference acts as a compass. It doesn’t just diagnose what’s broken - it spotlights the people reimagining food, land and climate systems from the soil up. What stood out this year wasn’t a single panel or workshop, but the collective energy. Urgency without despair. Complexity without paralysis. A movement making space for strategy, solidarity - and joy. From the Landmatch programme building bridges bxetween landowners and landseekers, to sharp debates on glyphosate, plastics, climate resilience, Indigenous wisdom and surveillance - there was no shying away from the hard stuff. But neither was there a retreat into silos or cynicism. Thanks to the ORFC team for such a thoughtful programme of events. To everyone we met and reconnected with: thank you. Let’s carry that same energy forward. #ORFC2026 #FoodJustice #Agroecology #ClimateAction

A season of progress and partnership! From policy platforms to creative campaigns, here’s a glimpse of what we’ve been up to over the last couple of months - 💡 At the Natural History Consortium's Communicate Conference 2025, Bhavna Kumar and Nick Boyle explored how trusted digital communities and better impact measurement can strengthen climate storytelling. 🏙️ We partnered with C40 on a year-long brand campaign to reimagine multilateral climate leadership through the voices of global mayors. 🌳 We rebranded the Forest & Climate Leaders’ Partnership ahead of COP30, creating a new identity, message and website as well as supporting communications throughout the summit. 🤝 We launched the new brand and website for the Synergies Collaboration Platform, helping connect those advancing integrated action on climate, nature and land use. 💚 And we welcomed Hazel Reade, Inês Andrade and Giorgia Ieraci Assumma - three brilliant team members bringing fresh thinking, skills and energy. There’s been lots happening behind the scenes too: 🎬 We co-hosted Behind the Lens with the National Wildlife Federation - a very special screening of Coast to Coast, exploring how offshore wind can be delivered in ways that are responsible, inclusive and grounded in community priorities. 👤 We were shortlisted for EO Transition of the Year at the eoa Awards, recognising our journey towards employee ownership. 💧 And we supported 1Energy’s push for low-carbon heat networks, shaping comms to help reduce fossil fuel dependency and improve air quality. Swipe through for the full story.

2025 is virtually certain to be one of the hottest years ever recorded. The latest data from our client @copernicusecmwf , featured in The Guardian, leaves little room for ambiguity. Global temperatures remain high month-on-month, with November ranking as the third warmest on record, and 2023-2025 now likely to be the first three-year average exceeding 1.5oC above pre-industrial levels. This is not distant or abstract. It is already shaping lives, policies, and markets around the world. At Greenhouse, we are proud to work with Copernicus to help bring this data to decision-makers who need it most. From climate-vulnerable communities to institutional investors, real-time insight is essential to informing response, building resilience, and strengthening accountability. As climate risks escalate, the role of clear, science-based communications becomes even more vital. Copernicus is setting the standard. 🔗 Read more via The Guardian: /environment/2025/dec/09/2025-virtually-certain-second-or-third-hottest-year-on-record-eu-data-coperincus

Soil is where climate solutions begin 🌱 As we mark #worldsoilday, it’s a reminder that the way we grow, produce and consume food is shaping the future of our planet. Yet the soil it all depends on is under threat. Today’s food systems drive emissions and degrade land, but they also hold untapped potential to restore balance 🌾 We work with organisations accelerating the shift to regenerative agriculture and nature-positive farming. Through strategic communications, we help them influence policy, unlock investment and change the way people think about food.

What defined COP30? Not just the final text, but everything around it. Brazil promised a people’s COP - where forests and Indigenous Peoples would take the lead. And for a while, that framing held. Media attention built. Expectations rose. But once the summit began, the spotlight shifted. The absence of major players, protests breaching security, and a leaked fossil fuel list pulled attention away from the substance of negotiations. For communications teams, COP30 offered a clear reminder: the story of a COP is shaped as much by who shows up, and what gets seen, as by what gets agreed. In this blog, our team returning from Belém have unpacked the key media and comms lessons from COP30. From storyline volatility to messaging discipline, here’s what to carry forward into COP31 🔗 https://greenhouse.agency/blog/cop30-communications-lessons-from-a-peoples-cop-that-got-complicated/

Language shapes how we connect and how we make people feel. The words we choose can include or exclude, offering a sense of belonging or reinforcing barriers. At Greenhouse, we believe inclusive language is essential to building a fairer, more collaborative culture. It helps us communicate with care, recognise the diversity of the people we work with and challenge unspoken assumptions. Our Inclusive Language Guide was developed to help people write with clarity and consideration. It is a practical tool for teams working in climate, policy or impact communications, designed to support more inclusive, effective dialogue. It’s not a checklist, but a living tool we’re using and refining as we go. If you are working in this space, we hope it offers something you can put into practice. Take a look. Share it with your team. Let us know how you’re approaching this in your own work: 👉 https://greenhouse.agency/blog/what-is-an-inclusive-language-guide/

COP30 hosted in the Amazon reminded us that nature is our greatest ally in the fight against climate change, offering one-third of the emissions reductions we need to reach climate targets 🌿 But, protecting and restoring healthy ecosystems supports life and our economies in so many other ways too from regulating water and air, protecting communities from extreme weather and supporting our food systems. Nature is under unprecedented pressure. Ecosystem degradation and biodiversity loss are accelerating, threatening both people and the planet. We work with organisations shaping policy and mobilising movements to protect and regenerate the natural world. Through strategic storytelling and advocacy, we elevate the role of nature-based solutions, inspiring action from communities to policymakers.

🎥 YouTube in 2026 is not what it used to be, and that matters for climate communicators. YouTube is a critical social and cultural channel. It has become a place where people go to search for answers and specialist knowledge, not just watch content. For those working to influence environmental or social change, this shift creates a critical opening. Our latest blog unpacks what this means for communicators, who want to reach people when it counts. From AI discovery to the rise of Shorts and immersive long-form formats, we look at how YouTube is shaping digital influence, and how to use it with purpose. If your mission depends on visibility, relevance, education and building trust, you need a strategy that goes beyond uploading and hoping for the best.

"October was packed with collaboration, creativity and climate action at Greenhouse, from global campaign launches to team milestones and new beginnings. Here’s what we’ve been up to 👇 🤝 Welcomed Rachel Friend as our new CEO, marking an exciting new chapter for Greenhouse. After team lunches in Bristol and London (and plenty of pizza!), Rachel has been getting to know our people, projects and purpose as we head towards @cop30nobrasil and beyond. 🌱 Partnered with Business for Nature to launch It’s Now for Nature Pulse, a new analysis revealing how leading companies are putting nature at the heart of their strategies. Drawing on 32 corporate nature plans, the report shows growing momentum for a nature-positive future while highlighting the progress still needed on governance, disclosure and restoration. 🌊 Supported the Science Based Targets Network on Step Up for Nature. This campaign urges companies to set science-based targets for land, freshwater and the ocean. We advised on strategy, messaging and creative, developed the campaign brand and hero film and helped inspire business action for nature. 🌎 Hosted a communications workshop in Brazil with Instituto Talanoa and 14 partner organisations, exploring how storytelling and strategic messaging can help unlock adaptation finance. 🍎 Celebrated the launch of the 2025 EAT-Lancet Commission Report, the most comprehensive scientific assessment of global food systems to date. The report’s findings are reshaping global conversations around food, climate and health and we’re proud to have helped amplify this vital science, which has already generated 2,000+ pieces of coverage and reached outlets including The Guardian, Bloomberg, CNN and more. 💚 Took time out for team away days, with our Impact Lab, Energy and Regen teams taking well-earned moments to reconnect and recharge. From mug-making and Italian lunches in Bristol to vegan banquets, art exhibitions and golf tournaments in London. It was a month of creativity, laughter and reflection. From nature and food systems to leadership and learning, October showed what’s possible when creativity and collaboration come together.
