The climate action countdown and how women can lead the way
In this inspiring think piece and call to action, the founder and CEO of the global climate action movement 1 Million Women explains why the place for climate action is here, why the time is now and how women can work together to lead the way. As Natalie says, this is the decisive decade for climate action and we have to make it count. We need to build a new world, starting immediately.
Recognised internationally for her inspirational and thought-provoking public speaking, Natalie, argues in Right Here, Right Now that it is women, set to be most adversely affected by climate change, who have the power in numbers and the emotional intelligence to make it happen.
With optimism as its heart, Right Here, Right Now sets out what we as a community and as individuals need to achieve in the next ten years, globally, nationally and locally. The good news is, it's all achievable - we just have to put our shoulders to the wheel and get it done.

Schweitzer Klassifikation
Natalie Isaacs is the founder and CEO of 1 Million Women, a global movement of women and girls who take practical action to fight climate change by changing the way they live.
A former cosmetics manufacturer, Natalie realised that individual action is a powerful path to solving the climate crisis. She decided to leave behind the overpackaged world of skin and beauty care to create an organisation that inspires and empowers women to act.
Under Natalie's leadership, 1 Million Women has become one of Australia's largest networks acting on climate change and is rapidly expanding internationally, with more than 800,000 women and counting. A sought-after presenter and The Australian Geographic society's 2017 Conservationist of Year, Natalie delivers a simple message that resonates with women and girls of all ages, cutting through complexity with the story of her climate journey from apathy to action. She is a pioneer in the gender and climate change arena in Australia, and is recognised and supported by some of the world's most influential women climate leaders.
