Broadcast meteorologists are trusted community figures, skilled at communicating science to many viewers. This makes them ideal messengers for discussing climate change and its local impacts.

Discover how some meteorologists are already educating their audiences on climate change, why others face challenges, and available resources to help more engage with this critical issue.

John Doerr, venture capitalist and author of the best-selling book *Measure What Matters*, popularized OKRs (objectives and key results). Now, in *Speed & Scale: An Action Plan for Solving Our Climate Crisis Now*, Doerr and Kleiner Perkins advisor Ryan Panchadsaram argue that the same management tools can be applied to prevent the growing climate crisis.

Join The Commonwealth Club and Climate One on December 6, 2021, as John Doerr and Ryan Panchadsaram discuss this pressing issue. They will explore how lessons learned at the highest levels of business might address climate change, in conversation with Greg Dalton of Climate One.

Despite scientific consensus on human-induced global warming, former US President Donald Trump has consistently denied its human origins. In 2012, he famously claimed climate change was "a hoax invented by the Chinese to make US manufacturing less competitive."

This political stance, compounded by the pandemic, has significantly hindered environmental progress. SustainabilityX magazine summarizes Trump's impact and offers a "what not to do" list to inspire action for the new year.

We Mean Business Coalition and B Lab announce a new partnership to help companies accelerate greenhouse gas emission cuts. Join their CEOs on a LinkedIn Live event to mark this collaboration.

This conversational event will explore businesses' central role in delivering climate solutions, achieving a just transition to net zero, and acting as a force for good.

Tune in on May 4 at 1pm UTC to hear from Maria Mendiluce (CEO, WMBC) and Eleanor Ellen (Lead Executive, B Lab) as they discuss true climate leadership for responsible businesses.

While climate science can be abstract, powerful storytelling through photographs and films can inspire a personal response to the crisis. Join us for a conversation on visualizing climate change with acclaimed storytellers: filmmaker Céline Cousteau, director Davis Guggenheim, and photographer Cristina Mittermeier. Greg Dalton of Climate One will host this insightful discussion.

WECAN extends sincere thanks to all the inspiring speakers for their valuable contributions.

Boudreaux, President & CEO, discusses Oberon Fuels' mission to decarbonize the fuel and energy sectors. The company aims to slash the environmental impact of fuels, particularly in hard-to-abate areas like heavy-duty transportation and agriculture.

Oberon achieves this through renewable dimethyl ether (rDME). Their low or carbon-negative rDME fuel can reduce LPG's carbon intensity by up to 60% when blended, potentially cutting global CO2 by 750 million metric tons annually. rDME also offers a compelling approach for transporting hydrogen for its fast-growing applications.
