4. Julia Jackson: Taking tangible radical action on climate change

This week’s podcast was recorded with Julia Jackson, Founder of Grounded at The World Economic Forum in Davos in January in a pre-Covid world. The mission of Grounded is to identify scalable climate change solutions and bring them to the forefront of public awareness. A philanthropic initiative, Grounded’s annual Summit of which Leonardo Di Caprio Foundation is a partner, convenes scientists, policymakers, investors, executives, activists and front-line organisations expressly to ensure that our planet remains liveable for all life on earth. In this podcast we explore how Julia and her Northern California community were impacted by the 2017 wildfires and how, ever since then, Julia has dedicated herself to taking radical, real and actionable steps to shifting the trajectory of climate change.
