Members of the Cloud Appreciation Society have been telling us they want to hear more from the Society – more about the science and culture of the sky and more about how to identify the different cloud formations. And that is why we have launched our Cloud-a-Day email service.

Here you can find out about subscribing to a Cloud a Day, and the benefits that come with it. We also have information on how you can help the Society grow and develop by becoming a Supporting Member.

All our original members, whether or not they choose to take up a subscription, continue to have full access to the website and to receive our Somewhat Occasional Cloud Newsletters.

That is why we started our Cloud a Day email. Each day, you’ll receive a cloud in your inbox. Sometimes it’s a photograph of an amazing formation by one of our members. Sometimes, a tiny piece of cloud science. We might send an inspiring sky quotation or a detail from a classic piece of cloud art. Each day it’s different and takes no longer than 30 seconds to read. And our Cloud-a-Day email is never, ever about selling stuff.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/6″][vc_single_image image=”89142″ img_size=”medium” alignment=”center” qode_css_animation=”element_from_right” transition_delay=”2.5″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=”no” text_align=”left” css_animation=””][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”206503″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”206517″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”204996″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_single_image image=”138624″ img_size=”full” add_caption=”yes” alignment=”center” style=”vc_box_shadow_3d” onclick=”link_image” qode_css_animation=””][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none” css_animation=””][vc_column][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row row_type=”row” use_row_as_full_screen_section=”no” type=”full_width” anchor=”supporting_membership” in_content_menu=”in_content_menu” content_menu_title=”Become a Supporting Member” icon_pack=”font_awesome” content_menu_fa_icon=”” text_align=”left” background_animation=”none” css_animation=””][vc_column width=”2/3″][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=”no” text_align=”left” css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1531483494450{border-right-width: 2px !important;padding-top: 25px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;border-right-color: #ececec !important;}”][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text]

Become a Supporting Member

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]As a Supporting Member of the Cloud Appreciation Society you will be helping our community grow and spread an appreciation of the sky around the world.

The sky is the most unifying and universal parts of Nature and strongly we believe that an appreciation of it can bring people together.

By becoming a Supporting Member, you will also be helping us to expand our participation in schools and adult education.

In addition to everything other members receive, our Supporting Members also have free access to all the cloudspotting video courses that we are currently developing, as well as free entry to any streaming services that we are able to set up for Society conferences and 15% off everything on our Cloud Shop.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”20px” css=”.vc_custom_1531482918905{background-color: #ffffff !important;}”][vc_video link=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lhP52caGW6s”][vc_column_text]Society founder Gavin Pretor-Pinney’s TED Talk about the value of cloudspotting.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/3″][vc_row_inner row_type=”row” type=”full_width” use_row_as_full_screen_section_slide=”no” text_align=”left” css_animation=”” css=”.vc_custom_1531483449123{border-left-width: 2px !important;padding-top: 15px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;border-left-color: #ececec !important;border-left-style: solid !important;}”][vc_column_inner][vc_single_image image=”473694″ img_size=”full” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” qode_css_animation=”” link=”/about-us/#cloud-appreciation-packs”][vc_column_text css=”.vc_custom_1614509310433{padding-top: 10px !important;padding-right: 10px !important;padding-left: 10px !important;background-color: #ffffff !important;}”]

Your membership will help us inspire young cloudspotters

5% of our membership fees are going to helping teachers around the world encourage a greater appreciation and understanding of clouds in young people. Our Cloud Appreciation Pack consists of free downloadable lesson plans, activities and resources and we send out an accompanying physical pack to any school or homeschool teacher free of charge. This Survival Kit for the Imagination is aimed at encouraging young people to become more aware of the beauty of the sky, to learn about how clouds work and to find calm and emotional resilience by engaging with this ever-present part of nature. In short, it is to encourage them to keep looking up.
