outsized impact on the climate crisis

Outlier Projects is a climate philanthropic organization that funds research on nascent ideas that have the potential to positively impact the climate crisis.

They fund research in three key nascent areas:

  • Carbon removal

  • Glacial stabilization

  • Planetary cooling

I created their brand and a simple website to showcase the multitude of grantees their funding helps support.

Scope

• Creative Strategy
• Visual Identity
• Visual Guidelines/System
• Website Design

Challenges

Some see planetary cooling (i.e., geoengineering via stratospheric aerosol injection) as “playing god.” The same goes for amending the oceans with minerals to store more carbon. Yet, we are also at a critical point in history where research can help determine climate solutions that are feasible, ethical, and scalable. Our collective survival depends on it.

GOALS

Reflect a brand of the future.

Center the grantees doing the frontline research.

Showcase philanthropy’s ability to make sizeable climate impacts.
