The Power of Advocacy in Combating Climate Change As advocates for climate change, our mission extends beyond raising awareness. It involves fostering a deep, collective commitment to protecting our planet. Climate change is not a distant threat; it's a present reality with profound consequences for our environment, economies, and communities. Advocacy, therefore, is our most potent tool to drive meaningful action and systemic change.

🏛️1.5 billion people from more than 50 countries will be headed to the polls in 2024.   With climate change policy under contention in many of these jurisdictions, there has never been a more important time for people and corporations to advocate for policies that will enable a rapid transition to net zero.   Our upcoming webinar series, ‘Engaging in Corporate Climate Advocacy’, supported by Clyde & Co, will demonstrate how businesses can contribute towards shaping a policy environment that supports their sustainability strategies and will highlight examples of leading climate policy engagement practices.   Find out more and register here: https://bit.ly/4bfl91W   #ClimateAdvocacy #Policy #ClimateAction
