In 8th grade, Lauren U.C. Ejiaga's science fair project on ozone depletion and Louisiana's marsh grasses won a top prize at Broadcom MASTERS. This experience highlighted the importance of environmental awareness alongside research, inspiring her to educate peers.

Now 17, Lauren leads multiple native plant restoration projects as a cohort leader for the Coalition to Restore Coastal Louisiana. She also founded the "Conservation and Restoration Conjunction," a series of workshops promoting STEM education and coastal protection among youth. She recruits national science fair winners to speak about STEM careers.

The B Corp Movement has impressively grown, with nearly 5,000 certified companies in 79 countries building an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economic system. Still, the goal is to empower all 125 million companies worldwide (World Bank, 2018) to adopt B Corp principles: positive impact, stakeholder accountability, and transparency.

A recent Skoll World Forum session, hosted by B Lab and Sistema B, outlined a global policy strategy for a new economy. Discussions focused on policies fostering Stakeholder Governance, emphasizing benefit governance is essential for businesses and capital markets.

This journey requires collaborations and coalitions to strengthen social capital for a new world. Organizations committed to policy-driven systems change are urged to join as backbone partners.

The Investment Leaders Group (ILG) and CISL have released "Understanding the climate performance of investment funds – Part 2: A universal temperature score method." This final publication in a two-part series, published July 29, 2021, is available here.

The report introduces a simple, transparent, and robust method to translate portfolio emissions into a Celsius temperature score. This metric helps investors understand their portfolio's alignment with the Paris Agreement, answering what global temperature increase would occur if the entire economy matched the portfolio's emissions intensity.

Jonathan Cybulski connects coral reefs, climate change, and physical fitness to introduce "climate fitness." He argues that focusing on small, everyday wins can shift the narrative from humans causing climate problems to humans being the solution, helping to avert climate catastrophe.

A historical and marine ecologist, science communicator, and athlete, Cybulski's research explores human impacts on nature. His ultimate goal is to humanize science and its practitioners, fostering greater understanding and appreciation.
