Introducing: The Climate Strides Event Series
Come run or walk with us in NYC and geek out on climate solutions while spending time in nature - what could be better?
It’s happening!
We’re so excited to announce our first event of many in the Climate Strides Event Series.
Come run or walk with us and geek out on climate solutions - free and open to all! The run/walk will take place March 8th at 9am in Central Park, NYC.
The event is designed to "break the panel" - we will get outside together, hear speakers from across the climate space and beyond, and create a community of like-minded individuals in NYC. Most of all, we will expand our thinking around climate solutions, and do it in a way that feels accessible to everyone.

Know anyone who lives in NYC and would enjoy this? Please send along!
The "pace" is extremely chill* - we leave no one behind, no matter the speed, while fostering dialogue around climate solutions. There will be a running group option and a walking group option.
*We encourage folks with a specific workout in mind to run either before or after the event, seeing this as a community warm-up/cool-down. And please note, there will be no bag drop option, so plan to wear/carry what you need to be comfortable depending on the weather.
Periodically, we will stop and hear from someone in the climate space for a few minutes - their work, their "aha" moment and their hopes for the future (both runners and walkers will get to hear each speaker). In between speakers, we'll continue the run/walk where you will meet new people and discuss what you just heard.
Speakers include an environmental justice lawyer, a community activist and run group organizer, a UN staff member specializing in NDCs for the Paris Agreement, a serial impact entrepreneur and an nonprofit founder/professor of climate campaigning who is also a musician you might recognize...
Come join us! Can’t wait to see you there.
