Given the urgency of climate change, there has been a surge in the number of organizations stepping up to address the challenge. This has led to exponential growth in the demand for skilled climate talent that can help scale and drive organizations towards their missions. Talent has become a major constraint to scaling climate action.

On the other hand, around the world, untold numbers of skilled professionals across sectors and career levels are hearing the call that addressing climate change is one of the foremost needs of this century and they are ready and willing to roll up their sleeves and commit their careers to this mission.
