1/ Ann and I are thrilled to announce our collaboration with @Stanford to create its first new school in 70 years – The Stanford Doerr School of Sustainability. nytimes.com/2022/05/04/cli…


I'm thrilled to share the @speedandscale 2024 Global Climate Tracker. It shows where progress toward net zero has been made, where it's lagging, and what we need to do to get there in time. Dig in. speedandscale.com/tracker/

Exciting news: we’ve raised a $100M Series C, led by Greenoaks and including @kleinerperkins, @sequoia, and other existing investors. Read more about what we have in store for our next chapter >> watershed.com/blog/series-c

It’s one thing to announce a net zero target. It’s a another thing entirely to sign contracts to deliver on it. Huge props to JPMorgan for inking some major carbon removal purchases. We’re stoked to go put another 28,585 tCO₂ underground @CharmIndustrial wsj.com/articles/jpmor…

I’ve been playing around with @OpenAI’s #ChatGPT tool, and I’m so impressed by its ability to articulate and interpret complex issues. I just prompted it to “write a ten-tweet thread on healthcare in America,” and this is what it gave me:


ICYMI: @RyPan & Anjali of @SpeedandScale hosted a #COP27 Power Hour with global climate leaders @topnigel @UNenvoyMM @AngelaAchurie & @investinclimate Press play to listen to the conversation & learn what we can take away from #COP27. twitter.com/i/spaces/1BRJj…

This might come as a surprise, but protected bike lanes are the best investment of a city’s infrastructure dollars when it comes to tackling the climate crisis. speedandscale.com/now-is-the-tim… Here’s why ⬇️ 1/8

Did you know that while over 50% of Fortune Global 500 companies have a climate commitment, only 5% have a clear net zero goal for 2050 or earlier? That's less than 30 companies! If you work at one of these companies YOU can fix this 🧵from #VERGE22 @GreenBiz on what to do ➡️

Entrepreneurs are heroes. They are provocateurs, risk-takers, innovators. In Rise of the Rest, @SteveCase paints a hopeful American future, built on the shoulders of founders across the country. amazon.com/Rise-Rest-Entr…

#RiseOfRestBook is finally here. I hope its stories give you as much hope about America’s future as the entrepreneurs I’ve met in the last 10 years have given me. Order your copy today: rvltn.vc/ROTR

Episode 100 of Grit with @johndoerr! From getting hired on his second try @kleinerperkins, to his conviction in making early bets that weren't obvious at the time like @amazon and @Google Congrats @Joubinmir for hitting the 💯 episode milestone. 🎉 open.spotify.com/episode/6cNTRp…


Thank you @POTUS for signing the historic #InflationReductionAct into law and making clean energy more affordable for all Americans. This new legislation will cut U.S. emissions by 40% by 2030 – getting us closer to our climate goals and helping us secure a habitable future.

The Inflation Reduction Act will help save money on prescription drugs, cut health care premiums, cut energy costs, take aggressive action on climate, and make large corporations pay their fair share in taxes. We got it done.

The catalyst for my involvement in climate action was my daughter, Mary. She held me accountable all those years back, & she continues to push me to act with @speedandscale This moment is for Mary, her generation, and all those to come. Father to father, thank you @brianschatz

After covering climate leg efforts for a decade+, I wanted watch Senate passage in person. It will be @brianschatz, still choking back tears as he left the floor, that will stick with me. "Now I can look my kids in the eye and say we're really doing something about climate."



The Inflation Reduction Act is groundbreaking policy for the U.S. and the world in the fight on climate change. Let’s get this done—with speed & scale.

🚨 Projected to reduce carbon emissions roughly 40% by 2030, the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is amazing progress on congressional climate legislation. 🚨 Here’s a breakdown of just some of the bill's actions by our @speedandscale OKRs. ⬇️

One of the best conversations I've had on climate in a long time. Thanks for having me @KaraSwisher podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/can…

“The climate problem is a wicked problem,” the venture capitalist @johndoerr tells @karaswisher “And by that, I mean that we’re not going to make progress fighting climate change unless we harness the full power of capitalism and markets.” nyti.ms/3MJKVOj
