Reactions to the 2024 CLC
- “I had the pleasure of attending the Climate Leadership Conference in the progressive and climate-foward city of Cleveland this week. The cross-pollination of sector talent was impressive, and the spirit of collaboration between public and private sectors was electrifying. There is a shared sense of purpose and a deep commitment from corporates and all levels of government to break down silos and share best practices. This collaboration is essential to fast-tracking the capital and innovation needed to meet our decarbonization and Paris Agreement commitments.”
