What an exciting week! Came back inspired by the power of our collective action to halt and reverse climate change.

It was an honour to participate in the London Climate Action Week as one of the Innovators from @EarthshotPrize's portfolio of solutions. The Earthshot Prize is a competition founded by HRH Prince William inviting humanity to use its ingenuity to address the climate emergency.

Thanks for inviting us to the @greensofa_betd at @COP28_UAE and giving us a platform to amplify the imperative for service-based models for bringing clean energy access in agriculture at speed and scale if we have to sustainably transform food systems.


I was honoured to be on this panel at @COP28_UAE and amplify the need to recognise clean energy as a key input in agriculture delivered through service-based models, if we have to sustainably transform food systems at speed and scale.

National agricultural plans in many countries often fail to mention energy, they focus on seeds, fertilizer, training but are blind to energy. Topic highlighted at #COP28 side event with @REEEP @PracticalAction @IRENA @oorjasolutions
