My First Post
"I'm fascinated by climate tech. It addresses a huge problem, but it also represents a huge opportunity." - Ben
My journey into this space started in 2020, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Like many, I found myself at home with plenty of time on my hands, casually browsing the internet. By 2021, I started to notice the growing prominence of the words "climate" and "tech" and felt compelled to explore further. That’s when I discovered several communities passionate about climate tech and actively working to build solutions (Work on Climate, Climate Action Tech, My Climate Journey, etc).
Clubhouse sessions, particularly those hosted by the Climate Tech Club, founded by Neil Yeoh, Kayalin Akens-Irby, and Chante Harris became instrumental in shaping my understanding and enthusiasm for climate tech.
Now, four years in, my path in climate tech has been nothing short of amazing. While I still feel there's much more to accomplish, I see the signs that I'm heading in the right direction.
I started this blog as a way to learn by doing. You’re welcome to join me and let’s see where it takes us!
P.S. Thanks to Ugochukwu (Kingsley) Umenwa for helping me get this blog up and running.
