## What it is
A curated directory and analysis of open source projects in climate change, sustainable energy, biodiversity, and natural resources. It catalogs projects with metadata in a browsable Grist spreadsheet and offers CSV downloads and related discovery tools like ClimateTriage.

## Use cases
- find open source projects for climate change research
- discover tools for renewable energy modeling and forecasting
- locate open source software for biodiversity and earth science
- browse a curated list of sustainability-related GitHub projects
- download a CSV dataset of open source climate projects
- find good first issues in climate tech projects

## When to choose
- you need a broad, curated index of open source sustainability and climate projects
- you want machine-readable metadata (CSV) about the open source climate ecosystem
- you are looking for projects to contribute to in climate tech

## When to avoid
- you need a runnable software tool rather than a directory of links
- you need deep technical documentation for a specific climate model
- you need proprietary or commercial sustainability software

## Facets
- artifact type: dataset
- maturity: active
- function: documentation, search-engine, data-science
- domain: awesome-lists, weather, energy
- platform: -
- tags: awesome-list, climate-change, renewable-energy, curated-directory, biodiversity, carbon-emissions, sustainability, open-data, environmental-science, open-source-ecosystem, web
