SuperScientist James Hansen is engaging with the International Court of Justice (World Court) on the critical issue of climate change.

His participation underscores the significant scientific and legal considerations now being brought before the world's highest court.

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.

Indigenous autonomy is a fundamental right, inextricably linked to protecting our planet and climate.
