The Schwarzenegger Climate Initiative

The Schwarzenegger Climate Initiative Arnold Schwarzenegger has been fighting pollution and climate change for 20 years.

His approach has always centred around the idea that we need "less talk, more action". His official Climate Initiative therefore focuses on concrete actions and projects. The Schwarzenegger Climate Initiative focuses on:

- building awareness on the climate crisis and the urgent need for action
every day and once a year at our AUSTRIAN WORLD SUMMIT (AWS).
- presenting workable solutions from

all over the world and connecting these
ideas to available technical and financial resources.
- supporting best in class climate protection projects from all over the world.
- serving as a "matchmaker" - we connect players from business, finance,
NGOs and local & national governments committed to collaborating on
sustainable projects. The basis for a functioning community is mutual respect and tolerance for other opinions and views. To ensure a fair cooperation, there are the following rules:
- Personal attacks, insults and accusations are not allowed on this site.
- Radical, sexist, religious and racist statements are not accepted. The
same applies to the violation of Austrian or international laws.
- The privacy of other people is to be respected.
- Spam, advertising, calls for meetings and rallies of any kind are
inappropriate on our site.
- Comments and posts that violate one or more of these rules will be
deleted.

We are excited to announce that Kamala D. Harris, the 49th Vice President of the United States, will join us at the 10th AUSTRIAN WORLD SUMMIT on June 16, 2026, at the Hofburg Vienna.

Held under the motto WE ARE UNSTOPPABLE, this year’s Summit will bring together leaders from politics, business, science, civil society, and culture to accelerate solutions for a cleaner, healthier, and more sustainable future.

As Vice President of the United States from 2021–2025, Kamala Harris helped advance the largest climate investment in U.S. history while strengthening international partnerships and championing opportunity, democracy, and justice.

“Kamala Harris has shown throughout her career what leadership means: standing up for people, defending democracy, and fighting for a better future,” says Arnold Schwarzenegger. “At our 10th Summit, we want to show that we have the power, we have the tools, we have the solutions, and when leaders and citizens work together, we are unstoppable.”

For the past decade, the AUSTRIAN WORLD SUMMIT has connected decision-makers, innovators, and changemakers from around the world to turn climate ambition into action.

Join us in Vienna as we celebrate 10 years of bringing people together to build a better future.

For week one of , we spent time with Anni, a resident at one Caritas’s retirement homes, to talk about climate change, everyday life, and what we can learn from older generations. 💚

One thing became very clear: not everything needs to happen faster, bigger, and all at once.

A slower way of living can mean consuming less, appreciating more, reconnecting with nature, and making choices that are better for both people and the planet.

Sometimes climate action starts with simply changing the pace.

Week 1 of is here: Less, But Better ♻️

We are kicking off seven weeks of workouts for the planet — and this week it is all about consuming consciously and reconnecting with what actually matters. 🌱

✨ This week’s challenges:
🛍️ No Buy Day — pick one day and buy nothing
🌿 Leave No Trace — wherever you go, leave it cleaner than you found it
🌳 Touch Some Grass — get outside for ten minutes. No phone. Just you and the planet.

Small habits. Real impact. And we are just getting started — these are habits we carry with us for all seven weeks. 💪

Don’t forget to use the Add Yours feature in stories to show us how you 👇
