You can use your phone, table, or laptop and make a video that says:
- Who you are and where you're from
- Why you joined the SIG
- What you're interested in working on  OR what you're goals are
- Suggestions for anyone else to join the SIG

Please make it in your native language if it's not English.

Then please upload it to youtube, instagram, or whatever platform and reply to this email with a link to it.  

We'll include your videos in this wiki, so people could hear the collective voice of our group from all over the world working on climate together.  We'll also be reviewing the videos to choose some segments for a montage video.

Finally, on Earth Day (April 22), let's all go on twitter and share our videos and re-tweet each others with the hashtags #opensource #climatechange #hyperledger #hlca2sig #earthday #video
