MiCommunity Terms and Conditions
Be part of Michigan’s community of climate activists and those who care about the environment
Last Updated: November 1, 2025
Welcome to MiCommunity! We’re building a space for people dedicated to climate action who care about the environment and want to make a difference. These terms are simple: treat each other with respect, participate in good faith, and help us keep this a welcoming place for everyone.
Our Community Values
- Be Dedicated. MiCommunity is for people committed to taking action on climate and environmental issues. Whether you’re new to advocacy or a seasoned organizer, we’re here to support meaningful engagement and real-world impact.
- Be Respectful. We welcome diverse viewpoints and healthy debate, but personal attacks, harassment, and hostile behavior have no place here. Disagree with ideas, not people.
- Be Honest. Share accurate information. If you’re not sure about something, say so. Cite your sources when making factual claims, especially about environmental issues or policies.
- Be Fair. Don’t spam, don’t manipulate discussions, and don’t use the community to promote unrelated commercial interests. We’re here to advance environmental advocacy, not sell stuff.
- Be Constructive. Criticism is welcome when it moves the conversation forward. Cynicism and negativity that shut down dialogue aren’t helpful.
What We Don’t Allow
- Hate speech, discrimination, or harassment of any kind
- Threats, doxxing, or sharing others’ private information
- Spam, excessive self-promotion, or commercial solicitation
- Impersonation or misrepresentation
- Illegal content or activities
- Misinformation deliberately spread to mislead or harm
- Content that violates others’ intellectual property rights
