In this episode, we speak with the incredible Dr. Julie Pullen about the importance of building community around climate solutions. Dr. Julie Pullen is a climate scientist using advanced computing technology and open-source software to quantify climate risk in the financial sector and beyond. With a background in earth system prediction and complex systems, Dr Julie brings a unique perspective as an oceanographer and former engineering professor, holding leadership roles in academia, non-profit, government, private sector, and scientific societies. Her work catalyzes sustainable investing in climate solutions and women-led ventures, and our conversation with Julie is nothing short of empowering.
In this episode:
We also talk about her work with Women Power Our Planet, an organization she co-founded that channels the financial power of women as an impactful climate solution. You’ll hear Dr. Julie talk about three things we can do to mitigate climate change today, as well as her praise for the book All We Can Save by Dr. Ayana Elizabeth Johnson and Dr. Katharine K. Wilkinson. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did. We know you, too, will feel optimistic and empowered!
