ABOUT WILL TURNER
Founding director of the Center for Natural Climate Solutions at Conservation International. Built a world-class team to help drive the nature transition—a rapid shift from human misuse of ecosystems emitting gigatons of CO2e/yr to our thoughtful stewardship of them absorbing that much.We create the gigaton-scale ‘solar panels’ of the nature transition and unlock them for investment. We orchestrate a rapidly expanding portfolio of projects, working with communities and partners in dozens of countries to protect, restore, and improve the management of ecosystems from the scale of individual plots to entire nations. We establish and follow the highest standards of integrity and quality for our climate, for communities, and for nature, and drive others to do the same. We support companies’ efforts within and beyond their value chains to have massive climate impact. We measure results, improve, go back and do even more.
