How You Can Help Solve Climate Change by Leveraging Your Skills

About this session

"How can I use my skills to help solve climate change?" This question was first asked to me not by one of our students at Terra.do, but by my co-founder at our first meeting. He has a background as a tech entrepreneur and was struggling to identify that sweet spot of intersection between his skills, interests and impactful climate action. So we decided to create a program for folks like him—professionals from all backgrounds keen to contribute to climate action—and Terra.do was born. Our goal at Terra.do is to help millions of people transition into climate work because that's what it's going to take to really solve this global problem.

In this chat, you will learn about:

  • The world of "climate work"
  • The various ways you can be part of the solution to climate change, using your existing skills
