Future history was in the making at Nasdaq on Monday morning ✨ We were honored to kick off NYC Climate Week 2024 with Laurene Powell Jobs of Emerson Collective, Tom Steyer of Galvanize Climate Solutions, Jennifer Granholm from the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), and a hundred other brilliant minds in climate. A lot of the most important future history starts with conversations. It starts with challenging the status quo, leaning into a provocation or two, and looking at what’s possible with a sense of breathless optimism over fear. I’m so honored to be in this seat, with the privilege to bring together incredible future history makers who are working on innovations that can’t help but spark total wonder — from transforming carbon into jet fuel to building stars on earth. They all represent belief in the idea that it is not too late, that we are so lucky to be in a position where we can make this chapter in our future history a well-loved and often-told story of human ingenuity.
