Dear Reader,
The Independent recently hosted its second annual Climate 100 event to recognise the environmentalists who are leading the fight against the climate crisis.
The event marked the publication of our Climate 100 list – a celebration of the campaigners, business leaders, scientists and innovators who are taking action to increase public awareness and find solutions to global warming.
Attendees at the New York event heard from speakers including Octopus Energy CEO Greg Jackson and World Affairs editor Sam Kiley.
Mr Jackson is an outspoken advocate of increasing renewable energy production and changing the ways we charge for our consumption. His company is a major investor across Europe in renewable power and by 2030 has a target to produce enough power for 15 million homes.
Sam Kiley, an award-winning correspondent and documentary maker, has recently been to Burundi in East Africa to report on the climate crisis and rising water levels, documenting the upheaval to the lives of thousands of climate refugees.
Recordings of both sessions are now available to watch below.
