Realizing the positive transformational change needed to tackle the climate crisis requires a new level of ambition, making difficult decisions involving tradeoffs and risks, trying new approaches that may not succeed, and departing from previous strategies, policies, or approaches for the right reasons. Some of the bold decisions needed require embracing a long-term commitment to as-of-yet unclear but critical change pathways, to planning and budgeting for iterative, non-linear, and discontinuous advancements that come with few guarantees.

This webinar explored the role bold choices play in transformational change and the relationship between bold choices and more incremental forms of change. The second half of the webinar was devoted to discussion amongst participants, which was not recorded. However, highlights from the discussions were presented at the end of the webinar.
