Following an extremely rewarding 2024 Climate Leadership Conference (CLC) and Awards Ceremony (CLA) in Cleveland, and after 13 successful years of gathering the brightest minds and most passionate leaders from a wide range of sectors, including corporate, public agencies, NGOs, higher education, and civil society, to highlight effective strategies to address climate change -we have decided to pause our plans for the Climate Leadership Conference and Awards in 2025, taking the year to reimagine the event.

The conference and awards program began as a way to recognize and share practical real-life examples of how climate leaders are implementing innovative ways to reduce carbon emissions. However, we recognize that the needs of organizations have evolved, and we want to ensure that the CLCs and CLAs are evolving too, in order to meet the moment and mission of today’s sustainability landscape.

2025 will give TCR and our stakeholders the time to thoughtfully reassess how we can continue to support and celebrate climate leaders in the most impactful way as we move towards 2030. Your voices are very important to us as we begin this journey, and we look forward to continuing to engage you throughout the year on the process. We look forward to providing updates on our plans soon and invite you to share your ideas for future programming using this form.
