About
Connecting people and ideas to build a prosperous future for all.
Climate change is the biggest threat that modern humans have ever faced, but we are yet to implement the solutions needed to mitigate and reverse its effects.
​
We all want to leave a cleaner and greener legacy for future generations. That’s why individuals and organisations across the world are working to develop practical solutions to how we decarbonise our societies.
​
But to overcome this monumental challenge, we need to connect thinking with action and collaborate across sectors, disciplines and demographics.
​
It's only by bringing all relevant stakeholders together to debate their ideas in an accessible way that we will develop effective long-term solutions.
​
We are playing our part by building a world-class network for business leaders, scientists, academics, engineers, policymakers, civil society and beyond to collaborate and confront one of the biggest challenges of our time, the transformation to a clean economy.
Concept
Climate change is an existential threat to our common future.
Our economy today is endangering the planet and compromising the prosperity of future generations. We need to act urgently to change the system.
Action requires leadership. The CGLN is an independent, private and not-for-profit organisation, harnessing the power of networks to build a platform for academic and scientific innovators to connect with business leaders, financiers and policy-makers to generate solutions to tackle the climate crisis and build a prosperous world.
