We all share a responsibility to address the root causes of climate change and reduce the footprint of our own actions. No group is immune to the effects of climate change, and our efforts to address climate risk are fundamental to the future of thriving societies. Because climate change disproportionately impacts underserved groups, eroding safety, long-term health and economic outcomes, our climate actions should be viewed through the lens of equitable opportunity, further solidifying the need for progress. This Main Stage panel will address the role we play in responding to systemic challenges that have created disparities across society, specifically focused on environmental equity.
Speakers:
9/19, 4:45PM - 5:30PM
Nationwide, the individuals most impacted by climate change tend to be those from marginalized groups and these communities are underrepresented in the climate movement. Climate change requires more than technological solutions, it demands a fair and just approach.
Tom's of Maine believes in placing equity at the core of its mission to create a healthy future for all people. Climate change and equity are not separate issues but are deeply interconnected, and addressing one requires considering the other. To spark insights into action, Tom's of Maine will convene a panel of youth voices at The Nest Climate Campus in September 2023. Attendees of this panel event can expect to see the energy, creativity, and commitment these young people bring take center stage, as they continue highlighting the need to imbed equity in climate solutions.

The climate crisis is rooted in systems and structures that enable and require the continuous growth and utilization of natural and human resources. Because the cause of the climate crisis is in these systems, the solution must accordingly be systemic and will take engagement in collective action by individuals, communities, nations, and international entities. Climate literacy is of paramount importance because groups of people who understand the causes, effects, and implications of climate change are better able to discuss, decide on, and take actions that fit their community. Securing a safe future for all will require a transformation of human society that, in turn, requires a climate literate population that is able to discuss and collaborate on implementing solutions that are inclusive and fair for everyone.

If we are to halt climate change before it’s too late, we need to use science to allocate philanthropic and investment capital to the most effective climate solutions and strategies – those that will yield the greatest benefit in the least amount of time. Project Drawdown’s scientific analysis shows that there are nearly 100 technologically and financially viable solutions for reducing, avoiding, or sequestering emissions. If scaled urgently and effectively, these solutions can collectively stop climate change.
During this panel, we’ll hear from leaders across the climate capital spectrum and explore how collaboration and different leverage points can accelerate effective climate solutions funding.
