Why did you decide to interview Nancy? What inspired you about her?
As a scientist myself, I’ve always admired those who make our work more accessible for the general public. But Ms. Colleton is way more than that. Her brilliant job in environmental communication has been instrumental for effective decision making, transforming the future of our society.
What surprised you most about your interview?
Ms. Colleton’s kindness. Besides being a brilliant professional she is also a wonderful person that actually cares about others. Other than that, the way in which countries collaborate to develop a robust environmental database will be key for risk mitigation and to adapt to the changing climate.
What are your 3 main takeaways for the Net Zero audience?
First, I really liked the great online tools she shared with us, such as BreezoMeter.
Second, we learn from Nancy that It doesn’t matter how good Science is; if it’s not properly communicated it won’t contribute much to our society.
Finally, I enjoyed hearing Nancy’s philosophy: Believe, Belong and Buckle Up.
Thank you Ivan!
C.M. Rubin and Ivan Ransom
