Archimedes, that super cool slasher Greek mathematician (slash physicist slash inventor slash astronomer slash, etc.) said ages ago that ‘the shortest distance between two points is a straight line’. I love this quote.

It has helped me overcome a lot of concerns by simplifying things and solving problems one simple step at a time.

The program takes great leaders and makes them exceptional, providing training in climate science, communications, and organizing to tell the story of climate change and inspire communities everywhere to take action. The result is a dynamic group of world-changers shaping the conversation on climate in forums from family dinners to international summits and building a 21st-century movement for solutions.)
