Bringing Clarity to Climate Policy
I started working on international and European climate policy in 2004 and I’ve spent most of my professional life as a policymaker.
Today, I run my own climate policy advisory, Climate Principles, and serve as the Chair of the Zero Emissions Platform, on the Board of Directors of Puro.earth and on the Board of Advisors of Carbon Gap.
I share the latest insights via speaking engagements and my Inside Climate Policy blog. I have written or contributed to a number of publications and frequently get quoted in media.
