“…Addressing a complex challenge like climate change requires an interdisciplinary, systems‐oriented perspective (see, for example, Frumkin, Hess, Luber, Malilay, & McGeehin, ; Füssel & Klein, ); however, some non‐profit organizations have approached environmental work as if it were a technical problem with a mechanistic solution. The shift from technical to systems‐oriented solutions is evident in how researchers and agencies are approaching environmental interventions (see, for example, Robinson, James, & Whitehead, ; Seara, Clay, & Colburn, ). This shift has implications for fundraising: Non‐profit organizations can only implement climate change interventions if sufficient funding exists, and sufficient funding will exist only if donors understand and have confidence in the intervention.…”
