The need for accelerated and more ambitious climate action has brought a sharper focus on nature-based climate solutions and their necessity in helping us address climate change.  Female climate leadership is a pivotal factor to enhance global climate ambition and action on the ground.  China and California are strong working examples where these two themes are central to climate leadership and success.  

Women leaders from China and California shared their perspectives on the importance of nature-based climate solutions, female leadership, and what it will take to accelerate action.
