April 12-14, I had the opportunity to participate in the Climate Reality Leadership training led by Al Gore. (https://lnkd.in/g4s2m2qU)
If you’re interested in taking action on any level toward mitigating climate change, I highly recommend this program. It’s concise, well-run, inspiring yet pragmatic, hopeful and action-oriented. Every session I attended addressed the questions, “But, what can I do?” and “Will what I do matter?”
One of the most powerful lessons I learned was that the biggest obstacle to effective change isn't a lack of solutions or resources - it's political will. Al Gore reminded us that political will is a renewable resource and that we can take the most significant first step as US citizens by electing the right officials and advocating for swift, climate-focused policy change.
Plenty more insights - happy to connect if you’re interested in learning more or have participated in the past.
