I write for Wikipedia because I believe that accurate and neutral information about climate change can help us make informed decisions and make the topic less polarised.

I started editing on the Dutch Wikipedia in 2013, mostly articles on physics, climate change and women in science (User page).

I started an cross-language effort get climate denial removed after a BBC journalist found widespread misinformation.
