Ashyln Anderson

Policy & Advocacy Expert | Cervest | Washington, DC

I focus on 1) how to shape climate policy, 2) how to support the public sector, 3) and how to advocate for equity in climate action from the vantage point of a climate technology company. Cervest's platform provides a shared view of future climate impacts that can enable the kind of collaboration that we need to adapt to climate change in a more efficient and just way.

Co-Founder | Thanks a Ton | Redondo Beach, CA

We need to do 3 things to address climate change: (1) reduce emissions, all the way to zero, (2) adapt to live in our changing climate, and (3) remove CO2 from the atmosphere. But most people have never heard of #3, and that’s the climate solution pathway that Thanks a Ton is focused on. We want to educate people about carbon dioxide removal and give them a way to participate in a climate solution.
