Climate Solutions: Progress Report 2022

CLIMATE LEADERS

EVENTS
During our May 2022
Signature Event, U.S.
Representative Pramila
Jayapal shared a lesson
about motivation she
learned “from great
organizing movements
and leaders from the
past... Let’s remember
as organizers:
strength comes in
moments of crisis;
we are growing
our progressive
movement for climate
justice.”
Our online Climate Leaders Live conversations and Signature
Events for fundraising were born out of the early days of the
COVID pandemic as we wanted ways to engage with folks
across digital space and create moments of continued learning,
shared experience, and deeper inspiration with premier
climate thinkers, policymakers, and leaders.
This year we were honored to host a number of awesome
discussions including U.S. Representative Pramila Jayapal;
White House National Climate Advisor (then Deputy) Ali
Zaidi; a focus on state solutions and coalitions with Kelly
Nordini of Conservation Colorado and Delmar Gillus of Elevate
and Illinois’ Clean Energy Jobs Coalition; a play-by-play
and highlights of the Inflation Reduction Act with Chesapeake
Climate Action Network’s Quentin Scott and League
of Conservation Voters’ Matthew Davis; and a lookback
field trip to Denmark to hear more on its clean energy and
renewable revolution. With hundreds of online attendees
throughout the year, we’re looking forward to 2023’s powerful
speakers and gathering with others in these and other
“anywhere online” spaces.
