Oops, I spilled the sustainabili-TEA! 🍵 This was a really fun conversation (and at one point, it made me a little emotional)! Climate work is challenging and a true passion – but it's also important to have some fun along the way. Here's to the progress, perspectives, and piping-hot takes from 7 years of The Climate Pledge!

Sally Fouts (Zwartjes), Global Leader of The Climate Pledge, and Meighan McLafferty, Director of The Climate Pledge, sit down for the latest episode of Spilling Sustainabili-Tea to share their hot takes, proudest moments, and perspectives on what it takes to turn climate ambition into action. 🫖

The tea is hot. The topic? Fashion's future. 🫖 What will it take to make more sustainable materials and solutions part of everyday supply chains? Kiesha Clayton and Wynne Pickus spill the tea in the first episode of our new series, Spilling Sustainabili-Tea. Learn more about The Climate Pledge Fashion Coalition: https://bit.ly/4jwggrX

The tea is piping! I sat down with Sally Fouts (Zwartjes) to spill the sustainabili-TEA on our work, and the takes are hot. 🫖 We've got proudest moments (shout out to the Get Blue campaign!) and thoughts on what it means to turn climate ambition into action. This is such a fun series of interviews from our team—keep following along to hear from more of our colleagues and the incredible work they're doing across all industies to support a more sustainable planet for all.

What's brewing at the intersection of AI and sustainability? ☕🌱 Naomi Morenzoni, SVP of Corporate Philanthropy & Employee Impact, and Tim Christophersen, VP of Climate Action at Salesforce, join us for the latest episode of Spilling Sustainabili-Tea to share their perspectives on the opportunities and challenges AI presents for climate action.

For nearly a century, steel and concrete have been the default building blocks of global development. Together, they account for roughly 15% of global carbon dioxide emissions. If concrete and steel were countries, they would rank among the highest emitters on the planet. We cannot build the future of global logistics with the carbon footprint of the past. That’s why the power of joint action is so critical. Real decarbonization isn't about isolated pilot projects or proprietary wins—it’s about using our collective scale to shift entire market ecosystems. Through The Climate Pledge, we are bringing together major portfolio owners and builders—including Amazon, Prologis, Meta, Ryan Companies US, Inc. and Trammell Crow Company —alongside climate and design leaders like RMI , ZGF Architects, and Thornton Tomasetti. Our goal? Scale mass timber across industrial and logistics infrastructure to reduce embodied carbon in large buildings by up to 60%. Joint action is one of the most powerful climate levers we can pull for a more sustainable future. Read about this project here: https://lnkd.in/e43zc9f3
