As Ceres celebrates our 35th anniversary this year—and we hope you join us on October 23 at our 35th Anniversary Gala in New York—I’m optimistic because I know the community we’ve built over the years is strong and growing, advocating for bold action louder than ever before on climate change, water scarcity, and nature loss.
I hear it in my conversations in boardrooms and with corporate executives across every sector of the economy. I see it in the hundreds of billions of dollars in clean energy investments the Inflation Reduction Act has unleashed. I see it in the number of investors joining initiatives to work with companies to better protect water and other natural resources. I feel it every day as I engage with our network members and staff. And I recognize it in your support and vote of confidence in our work.
It is an honor to share this Annual Report with you and reflect on all we’ve accomplished in the past year, and over the past 35 years.
