Climate solutions suffer from significant underfunding and a lack of prioritisation from both the public and private sectors. Without prompt and substantial changes, the latest synthesis report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) suggests that the world is on track to miss the goals set by the Paris Agreement, which aimed to limit global warming to 1.5°C.

You managed to make it through multiple interview rounds, successfully negotiated your salary, have signed on the dotted line and yet somehow, you hate your new job and don’t know what to do.

How to balance short-term task planning with long-term vision
