Up very early, by my standards, to get to the House of Lords by 08.00 to check in for the second annual Climate Leaders Forum event, held in the Cholomondley Room and Terrace, overlooking the Thames. After a welcome from Lord Adair Turner, I did a 30-minute fireside chat with Hannah Jones, CEO of The Earthshot Prize.
She and I met back in the late Nineties at Nike and have been friends since. In that spirit she contributed a foreword to Tickling Sharks. Was on a table focusing on “Navigating Shareholder Pressure,” though those at my table, including CSO-level people from Arm, BA and BP, suggested that it should often be lack of such pressure.
Met a fair few people that I knew, but loads that I didn’t – which, for me at least, is always an important test of a useful event. Meanwhile, foot still aching after the cracked bone (or whatever) en route to Belo Horizonte earlier in the year, but managing to get around without hobbling too much.
