There is an abundance of news about climate change. Yet society lacks a generally accepted and useful context to sense of the content. Without the context, the content simply occurs as fragmented information and the result is overload, resignation, and defeatism. Our theory is that by illuminating the context of climate solutions, society can more easily see solutions as evidence of the big picture. We believe this clarity is a precondition to accelerating our desired future. Our theory has 5 key steps:

1. Demystify the sources of emissions: Energy, Food & Ag, Transportation, Buildings, and Industry

2. Identify the lower carbon version of the product or service within each sector

3. Curate organizations that are creating those solutions

4. Present those organizations to the public as “evidence of the future” expressing itself right now in the present

5. Create a lively atmosphere with entertainment, food and drinks, and education, in an inspiring “world’s fair” style format

Science-Based
To stay true to the science and build evidence-based hope, we base our theory on a few key resources: Project Drawdown emissions sectors, Speed and Scale targets, Planetary Health Check, the Chicago School’s Levers of Social Change, and the strategic management principle known as Backcasting.

We believe in the power of transformation on micro, meso, and macro levels. What happens to one eventually happens to all. Our role is to create the conditions for evidence-based climate hope to emerge. The result is an ever-present sparkle of awe and camaraderie, fortified by a shared vision of our desired future that’s expressing itself right before our eyes.
