Climate 1.5, a series by Winrock International, is inspired by the urgent goal outlined in the Paris Agreement, brokered by former Winrock board member Christiana Figueres, to limit global warming to 1.5 degrees Celsius. Winrock’s Climate 1.5 series features climate experts in 1.5 minutes — because when it comes to climate action, there’s no time to waste.
