    Clean air is essential for our health, yet millions of people around the world are affected by air pollution each year, leading to premature deaths and severe health issues. Vulnerable groups, such as children, the elderly, and those with chronic diseases, are especially at risk. A lack of transparency in data, insufficient political will, and limited funding are often barriers to progress.   Improving air quality is a win for both public health and climate change mitigation. Cities can address multiple challenges by focusing on clean air initiatives, and significant advances have been made over the past decade in monitoring technology, public awareness, and solutions like electric vehicles, clean energy, and air quality policies. Now more than ever, it's crucial for cities, governments, businesses, and citizens to join forces and expand these efforts.   Panelists: Arunabha Ghosh, CEO, Council on Energy, Environment and Water (Moderator) Iyad Kheirbek, Director, Air Quality Program, C40 Cities Climate Leadership Group Tolu Oni, Clinical Professor of Global Public Health and Sustainable Urban Development, University of Cambridge Host: Lea Weibel, Specialist, Global Future Councils, Knowledge Communities   Related podcasts: Breathe!

He spoke with Meet The Leader at the Annual Meeting in Davos about his experience, sharing what's needed for collaboration to balance a growing space economy and the need for stronger space governance. He also shared what his degrees in engineering and economics have tight him about problem solving - and what his astronaut's training can teach any of us about collaboration - and tackling climate action.

    Melting arctic ice will have knock-on effects around the globe, impacting farms, homes, livelihoods and more. But making people care about melting ice or the Arctic - things most people will never see firsthand - can be almost impossible. Unless you get creative, that is. Arctic Basecamp (a group of arctic experts and scientists), has found a range of creative ways build awareness, including: a special basecamp during Davos (where visitors can learn the latest research by day and some spend the night like polar researchers in below zero temperatures), attention-getting apps, and ice cream booths that drive home the fact our favorite foods are vulnerable to climate change. There's even a new metaverse experience developed with Accenture on Polar Tipping Points (as part of the World Economic Forum's larger Global Collaboration Village). Meet the Leader talked with founder Gail Whiteman and board member and actor Rainn Wilson about how they strategically "speak science to power," to grab the attention of changemakers from grassroots activists to heads of state. They also discuss how they target and connect with a 'moveable middle" a segment of the population open to change and willing to consider new ideas and approaches.
