This podcast episode is about the appeal #WeCanDoIt launched at COP27 by a group of business leaders, entrepreneurs, investors, disruptors, innovators, scientists, influencers, and policymakers worldwide. They are committed to creating a greener, cleaner, and brighter future and believe that we can't afford not to make the transition to a fossil-free economy. They push for the rapid phasing out of global fossil-fuel subsidies, tougher regulations, smarter incentives, sharper climate goals, and accelerating investments in green infrastructure. They believe that we have the will and the solutions to create a more sustainable world, and it is our defining moment to co-create a brighter, better, and more exciting tomorrow for all.

We Don't Have Time has together with its partners UNDP, The Exponential Roadmap Initiative, and GoClimate initiated the #WeCanDoIt campaign to create a new narrative in the climate debate.We believe, that to accelerate global climate action in time – and get enough people on board to make a difference – we need to focus more on the solutions than on the problem.
We believe we need to start telling the story of the tomorrow we want to create, and to spread the word on the enormous benefits this green shift will bring in terms of new jobs, increased health, restored ecosystems, and limited global warming
This initiative has been created without any financial purposes. You are free to use, reuse and republish it as you wish, as long as you stay true to its original purpose.

We have the solutions, we have the will, we have the money, and together we have the power.
We Can Do It!
