Tune in with co-hosts Ben Hurst and Daze Aghaji to learn how diversifying climate leadership and increasing local-led solutions is the first step for both climate and gender equality action, how female leadership is proven to improve climate outcomes, and the surprisingly simple way we can solve this man-made problem. by Climate Curious
