James Gifford, Executive Director of the U.N. Principles for Responsible Investment, notes the global financial crisis has prompted firms to consider environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors for long-term sustainability. He calls relying solely on financial metrics "a bygone paradigm," urging leaders to address short-term investment strategies.

Dr. Gifford is a Senior Fellow at the Harvard Kennedy School's Initiative for Responsible Investment, researching sustainable investment in emerging markets and integrating positive impact into mainstream strategies.

This B Corp Global Climate Summit session, part of the Day 2 Africa Regional Session, explores the circular economy. This model aims to eliminate waste, boost resource productivity, and redefine how we design and reuse resources. With food waste alone contributing 3.3 billion tonnes of CO2 annually, and the linear economy's flaws exposed by COVID-19, the circular economy offers a new paradigm with an estimated $4.5 trillion annual economic potential by 2030.

The session will delve into applying circular principles to food waste management, how businesses adopt circularity for resilience, and real-world company case studies. It will also discuss the circular economy's potential for a green post-pandemic recovery. Speakers include Grace Wachori, Martha Nalweyiso, Matt Homewood, Daniel Chege, and Rita Atuti.

Engineering must evolve to address complex global challenges like climate change. We need a new generation of "Zero Carbon Engineers" who can blend creativity, systems thinking, and behavioral science to develop solutions that balance societal and natural needs. This talk explores their importance and essential skills.

David Rooney, Professor of Chemical Engineering at Queen's University Belfast, directs the Sustainable Energy Research Group and Bryden Centre. His research focuses on sustainable energy and materials, and he advises industry and government on Zero Carbon technologies. He also holds the position of Dean of Internationalisation and Reputation for the Faculty of Engineering and Physical Sciences, with extensive international experience.

The Center for Biological Diversity experienced a fast and successful 2025, despite multiple investigations and attacks from President Trump and far-right House members aimed at intimidation.

The Center for Biological Diversity experienced a fast and successful 2025, despite multiple investigations and attacks from President Trump and far-right House members aimed at intimidation. These efforts failed to slow us down.

Since Trump's second inauguration on January 20, we have filed 65 lawsuits. These actions targeted destructive policies, climate-killing fossil fuels, widespread chemical approvals, and the despoilment of vital ecosystems like the Everglades. We also fought corruption threatening wilderness areas and defended national parks from exploitation.

We are deeply grateful for your continued faith and anticipate more hard-fought battles and victories in 2026.

Taylor McKinnon, an accidental artist and dedicated activist, serves as the Southwest Director for the Center for Biological Diversity. He oversees efforts to protect wildlands and endangered species, spearheading campaigns to end federal fossil fuel leasing and ban uranium mining around the Grand Canyon.

In this artist talk, McKinnon explores nature photography as a practice of natural history, intertwining observation, art, love, and activism. He will discuss his process in the field and Lightroom, including the compositional freedom of long lenses and developing a minimalist style absent art theory. McKinnon will also share abstract landscape photography not featured in the exhibit.
