Jorge "Daniel" Taillant’s admiration and determination to protect glaciers is really only the tip of the iceberg in his battle for climate change. Daniel is a Climate Justice Policy Advisor at the Institute for Governance & Sustainable Development, a group dedicated to promote positive influences in societies to protect the environment and create accountable systems of governance. At IGSD, Daniel helps advise the state of California, state agencies, local government and civil society organizations on climate action. He is a co-founder for the Center for Human Rights and Environment where in 2014, he took a leadership role at the Climate and Clean Air Coalition (CACC) and is helping the UN coalition to promote the phaseout of climate pollutants such as methane and black carbon. Additionally, he acted as the Chief Strategic Advisor to the Secretary of Environment of Argentina from 2006 to 2008.
