Our Team

Nathaly Moreno

Manager of Innovation, Equity & Access

"The causes for the climate crisis lie in our society's worldview toward our economy and our planet. Humanity's saving grace won't just come from fancy technology, but from taking seriously the perspectives of people our society has discounted the most - indigenous people, marginalized people, people of color, and women. It's our job now to listen and act."
