About the Author :
Ryan Hagen is on a mission to help build a safe, healthy, and just world. That mission led him to start a climate action newsletter, which grew to 200,000+ subscribers from 150+ countries, start the nonprofit Crowdsourcing Sustainability, speak at dozens of events, and empower thousands of people to help make the places they live and work more sustainable. His work has been recognized by the UN, TEDx, and LinkedIn as one of the Top Voices on the Green Economy. When he's not nerding out on climate action, he's usually with family and friends, taking a walk in the woods, learning, playing soccer, watching sunsets, or seeing how many first sips he can get out of a coffee oreo milkshake.
