The Climate Optimist Mission

Our mission is to shift the narrative on climate change so that we can act from courage and excitement, not fear.

“When it comes to climate change, we’re asked to panic. But fear will never drive long-term, sustainable change, so it’s time we tell a new story.”

— Anne Therese Gennari, Founder

The Climate Optimist is designed to activate curious and resilient climate leaders in the everyday person.
