Climate action’s hidden opportunities for women | Zineb Sqalli | TED Talk

In her TED Talk on “Climate action’s hidden opportunities for women,” Zineb Sqalli explores the relationship between climate change and gender equality. Through extensive research, Sqalli shares how her team identified current climate action as a key driver in the gap between men and women. Sqalli fears that current climate action will actually widen the gender gap, specifically due to a lack of women in the workplace within science and energy-related fields. To combat this, Sqalli argues that women must equally benefit from sustainability initiatives, and we must make an explicit attempt to ensure this equality.
