Lately, I’ve felt growing pressure around how and where I speak about certain issues. I wish I could be more specific, but the truth is, I’m not entirely sure what topics have caused concern. What I do know is that some invisible lines seem to have been crossed, even though my intentions have always been peaceful, lawful, and driven by love for our world.
Because of this, I’ve made the difficult decision to shift most of my work—including the Climate Tribe platform—behind a modest paywall. While certain parts of Climate Tribe were already subscription-based, more of the mini-communities will now move to a $4.99/year subscription. A few smaller spaces that were once free will be retired altogether. These changes are not about profit—they’re about protection. They’re about staying connected in a way that feels safe, grounded, and respectful of the reality we find ourselves in.
In addition, some of my other websites that were previously open to everyone are being thoughtfully folded into Climate Tribe, so everything lives in one more secure place. That said, eXit235.com will stay public. It will serve as our transparency portal and open gateway to what Climate Change Community LLC stands for. You’ll soon see a refreshed layout there—maybe with fewer posts, but more focused, clear, and purposeful ones.
These aren’t easy choices, but they come from a place of care. I still believe in transparency, collaboration, and being a responsible voice. But at this time, I need to step back from the fully public sphere—not because I’m afraid, but because I care about the safety and peace of my family and myself. In moments like these, Adaptive Resiliency, from the standpoint of both self and collective preservation, becomes not just a principle—it becomes personal.
As a result, you may notice fewer videos or posts from me on certain topics, like AI and employment, Climate and Ecological disruption, or current politics. I’m not abandoning these issues—far from it. I’m simply choosing new paths to explore them more thoughtfully, and perhaps a bit more quietly.
Instead, I’ll be diving into a new project that means a great deal to me: a year-long journey through history, exploring the lives and thoughts of individuals born on each day of the year. We’ll uncover the wisdom they carried, how they adapted to the world around them, and what they still teach us about resilience, vision, and meaning. I’ll be tying these insights to the themes of Adaptive Resiliency, from the standpoint of both self and collective preservation, and our ongoing Climate and Ecological Emergency. A full blog post about this series will be released toward the end of the month.
To each of you who has supported this journey, especially in uncertain times—thank you. Your trust, encouragement, and patience mean more than I can say. These adjustments are simply the next step in building something safer, deeper, and ultimately stronger. We’re not retreating—we’re growing in a new direction.
With sincerity and steady hope,

ADDENDUM: A Path Built on Learning, Not Credentials
Let me be completely transparent: I’m not a climate scientist. I don’t hold any formal degrees in Climate Science or Ecological studies. But I am a devoted student of the world we live in. I pay close attention to those who are experts—scientists, researchers, frontline reporters, and educators who dedicate their lives to understanding and explaining what’s happening to our planet.
I listen. I read. I follow their updates. I track their findings, and I learn from their collective wisdom. And I strongly encourage you to do the same. If you’re just getting started, I recommend looking into sources like PBS Terra, Our Changing Climate, Inside Climate News, and many others offering solid, accessible reporting. There’s no shortage of trustworthy voices—you just have to be willing to tune in.
My true calling isn’t about being an authority. It’s about being a bridge. A learner. A signal-booster for the truth. What I focus on—wholeheartedly—is learning, especially around Adaptive Resiliency, from the standpoint of both self and collective preservation. I study the Climate and Ecological Emergency, look for real mitigation strategies, and share what I find. Not just for myself—but for my nieces and nephews, for my friends’ kids, for everyday people who are quietly asking, “What can I do?”
This lifelong hunger to learn is what gave rise to Climate Change Community, and eventually to its child-sites like Climate Tribe. Everything I’ve built so far has been guided by that rhythm—a steady drumbeat of curiosity, growth, and heartfelt concern.
By nature, I tend to be deeply curious, sincere, and compassionate. When I see others suffering—whether it’s from extreme weather, financial hardship, or displacement—it hits me hard. It drives me to act, not out of panic or anger, but out of empathy and the simple belief that if we care, we must try.
Yes, my work is Climate-related, but it’s also rooted in something older—something timeless. It comes from a place of moral clarity and a desire for shared purpose. My hope is that what I share sharpens your perspective, brings clarity, and perhaps even inspires you to take your own steps toward Adaptive Resiliency, from the standpoint of both self and collective preservation.
And if I ever get something wrong—please tell me. You can reach out on BlueSky, leave a thoughtful comment on YouTube, or send an email to the address listed below. I don’t run from accountability. In fact, I make it a point to ask myself hard questions when something goes wrong:
“What does this reflect about me?”
“What can I learn here?”
“What do I need to change in myself?”
I don’t always get it right—but I always take responsibility. I try not to blame or complain (though I’m human like anyone else). What I do try to do is use every mistake, every setback, and every uncomfortable moment as a stepping stone. As fuel. As part of my commitment to becoming a better version of myself—and helping others do the same.
Thank you again for walking this path with me. Every message, every click, every quiet moment of reflection matters more than you know.
With gratitude and resolve,
—Mr. Alvarez
