We’re in a new year, which means we’re one year closer to 2030. That’s the deadline suggested by scientists and other experts as the date by which we need to make substantive changes to our way of life, or face potentially irreversible negative consequences. Experts have been clamoring for solutions for this massive challenge.
This “First Fridays” we have assembled a panel of experts with ideas that will play a role in discovering and nurturing solutions that will have a positive impact on all of us:
Last month, 1,000 next-gen talents from 150 countries gathered in Rwanda, formed 200 teams, and then each came up with a new entrepreneurial solution to address some of the planet’s biggest challenges.
In October in the Netherlands, a similar gathering was taking place with the best college-based ideas from 35 countries, representing the best planet-saving solutions from a pool of 72,000 people.
Soon in 2024, another organization will award $500,000 to 10 ideas that are actively mitigating our warming climate.
Jacquelyn Francis, Founder and Executive Director, Global Warming Mitigation Project
Patricia McLoughlin, General Manager, Anthem Awards
Nina Soraa, UNLEASH Innovation Lab, Program and Partnerships
Terry Torok, Executive Producer at Live from Earth Entertainment & Co-Founder of the Creative Intelligence Agency
Verneda Adele White, Founder, anti-racism lifestyle brand America's Hot Sauce (That’s the kind of warming we can live with!)
