A Brush With Climate
A Brush With Climate utilises UCC鈥檚 expertise in climate change and communications and The Environmental Forum鈥檚 experience of local community climate action. Through a series of co-creation workshops held in 2025, the project has co-created resources to support hairstylists to have conversations about climate change with their clients and to inspire climate action. The project has also delivered climate training to hairstylists, covering themes such as climate impacts, climate action, and myth-busting

‘A Brush With Climate’ has co-created a suite of resources which are designed to support hairstylists to talk about climate change in an accessible and fun way with their clients, with the goal of inspiring their clients to take tangible actions. These resources include:
– These cards invite a client to imagine what would happen if they implemented a climate action in their everyday life. Each card has a “What if?” question on the front, followed by an action – for example: “What if… I tried to reduce my energy and electricity usage at home?”- on the flipside of the card is a QR code which leads to a Linktree packed full of answers to each question. There are 20 cards in the deck, with questions covering a range of themes: energy, transport, fast fashion, activism, food waste, and more!
– This Linktree page answers all of the “What if?” questions on the Climate Bingo Cards – each link leads to more information and resources about how to do any of the actions your client chooses.
– These stickers are an eye catching and easy way to start a conversation about climate action – each sticker has a different fact about climate change and a QR code to the Linktree. Perfect way to start a conversation – your client can be already thinking about climate action while waiting in their chair! The stickers are printed on static cling material which means that no glue residue is left behind on your mirror.
– These small cards are designed to support you to answer questions you might get about climate change – the cards come with key information like impactful actions, causes of climate change, impacts on Ireland, and trustworthy sources of information.
