Seeking leaders with promising conservation and climate solutions and help them to design and deliver them at scale. Each year we select 8–10 leaders and help them (1) design high-impact scalable solutions and strategies for better, faster, bigger outcomes; (2) build the organizations to deliver them at scale; and (3) become part of a growing community of innovators in conservation and climate. We look for impact-obsessed people pioneering effective ways to: protect nature and ecosystems (forests, rivers, oceans, mountains, grasslands); slow down climate change (drop emissions, use energy efficiently, capture carbon) or adapt to the new climate reality. Their solutions focus on everything from tropical forests in the Amazon Basin to grasslands in Africa to fisheries in the Indian Ocean.
