Climate Group 57d ago

The challenges reshaping America — climate risk, energy security, economic competitiveness, and conservation — don't respect political boundaries. They demand a new kind of leadership: one that can look beyond familiar frameworks, extend the boundaries of its own interests, and find the common ground where shared risks become shared opportunities.  This conversation brings together leaders from national security and resilience, clean energy and the economy, and conservation to explore what it looks like to lead from that place. Not to agree on everything — but to model what it means to come to the table with a shared vision for what the country needs, and a willingness to pursue it together. Themes: Common risk, common opportunity: how the challenges ahead affect every sector and every community Leading beyond your lane: what it takes to extend the benefits of your work beyond your particular realm Where national security, economic competitiveness, and conservation converge From shared purpose to shared outcomes: what leadership looks like in practice The vision of a stronger, more resilient America — and who helps us get there Speakers/Moderators: Dr. Elizabeth Gray, CEO, National Audubon Society Jeremy Harrell, CEO, ClearPath Alice Hill, David M. Rubenstein Senior Fellow for Energy and the Environment, Council on Foreign Relations Moderator: Kerrick Johnson, Commissioner, Vermont Department of Public Service
