Our Mission
Our mission is to shift the narrative on climate change so that we can act from courage and excitement, not fear.
— Anne Therese Gennari, Founder
“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,
