who are quitting their jobs to tackle climate change. To understand the difficulties they face and what lessons they’re learning, Take the story of Laura Brown, whose neighborhood in Nashville, Tennessee, was wiped out by a tornado on 3 March, 2020. The overall damage totaled $1.5 billion. “We were basically climate refugees during the first part of the pandemic,” she says.
Many of the stories we heard were from people quitting the oil and gas industry. Jan Bohnerth said he left the public and government affairs department of ExxonMobil in Germany, moved to Sweden, studied sustainable development, and now works for a communications firm that champions cleantech.
Justin Kennedy quit his 22-year career as an oil and gas lawyer in Australia after reading the International Energy Agency’s 2021 report, which said meeting climate goals will mean building no new fossil-fuel projects. He now works for SunCable, which is aiming to build a 4,200-kilometer undersea transmission line to take Australian solar power to Singapore.
Those who do change jobs will need to be prepared for rapid developments in the green industries they join. Sandy Anuras left her senior vice president job at travel company Expedia to join solar-deployment firm Sunrun as its chief technology officer. “When I first joined someone said to me: ‘Welcome to the solar coaster,’” she says.
