In her latest blog post, emily porro of The Bliss Group and Co-Lead of the Women in Cleantech & Sustainability NYC Chapter reflects on insights from our recent event: Defiant Optimism: Harnessing Hope in the Fight Against Climate Change.

From the event, we’ve highlighted four transformative takeaways: 🌟 Meet People Where They Are: Align climate action with what matters most to them—health, jobs, or community. 🌟 Engage Those Closest to You: Start the conversation with friends and family to build awareness. 🌟 Commit, Relentlessly: Small, consistent actions fuel big, long-term impacts. 🌟 See Every Job as a Climate Job: No matter your industry, there’s a way to integrate sustainability. 📖 Read the full blog and find your spark of optimism: https://lnkd.in/gx3UR-h4 #ClimateAction #Sustainability #DefiantOptimism #WCSNYC #WomenInCleantech #HopeForChange #Resilience
