At Climate Week NYC 2024, many conversations focused on improving public understanding of climate change — also known as climate literacy. In this episode of the ESG Insider podcast we explore how increasing climate literacy can help prepare the future workforce for the green job opportunities that will come with the low-carbon transition.  We sit down on the sidelines of The Nest Climate Campus with Kathleen Rogers, President of Earthday.org. This is a nonprofit that grew out of the first Earth Day in 1970 and has a goal of raising public awareness about environmental issues.   We also talk with Frank Niepold, Senior Climate Education Coordinator at the Climate Program Office of the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Frank co-authored a new interagency climate literacy guide for educators, communicators, and decisionmakers.  To understand how culture can help educate about climate change, we speak to AY Young, a United Nations Young Leader who uses his music to spread awareness about sustainability issues including the UN's 17 Sustainable Development Goals.  And we hear how some companies are approaching the topic in interviews with Gayle Schueller, Senior Vice President and Chief Sustainability Officer at technology and manufacturing company 3M; and Holly Paeper, President of the Commercial HVAC Americas business at Trane Technologies, a building technology and energy solutions company.  Listen to our prior episodes from Climate Week NYC 2024 here:  Kicking off Climate Week NYC with an urgent to-do list: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/kicking-off-climate-week-nyc-with-an-urgent-to-do-list CDP CEO talks climate, nature and the future of sustainability disclosure: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/cdp-ceo-talks-climate-nature-and-the-future-of-sustainability-disclosure   Audubon CEO on why bird loss indicates a planet in crisis: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/audubon-ceo-on-why-bird-loss-indicates-a-planet-in-crisis   SBTi interim CEO on what’s next for net-zero standards: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/sbti-interim-ceo-on-what-s-next-for-net-zero-standards California state senator talks climate disclosure featuring: https://www.spglobal.com/esg/podcasts/california-state-senator-talks-climate-disclosure   This piece was published by S&P Global Sustainable1, a part of S&P Global.   Copyright ©2024 by S&P Global  DISCLAIMER  By accessing this Podcast, I acknowledge that S&P GLOBAL makes no warranty, guarantee, or representation as to the accuracy or sufficiency of the information featured in this Podcast.
