The Hollywood Climate Summit is an annual multi-day conference that creates a cross-sector community space for thousands of entertainment and media professionals to take action on climate. We gather filmmakers, executives, artists, activists, climate organizations, scientists, and other experts for interactive programming and professional development opportunities. Our main conference is located in Los Angeles, and includes hybrid workshops and virtual networking opportunities for international audiences. Four years in a row, we have convened thousands of creative professionals from more than 52 countries, doubling or even tripling attendance year over year. Our mission is to equip professionals in communication and entertainment with informed strategies, tools and information to learn and communicate effectively about climate change; our method is to create a culture of excitement, acceptance, and community to empower people with the courage necessary to speak out on an issue that has been avoided, polarized and sanitized. Our vision is to transform this event into "the SXSW of climate media": a marketplace of ideas that brings together film & TV, music, technology, advertising, and other adjacent industries for the betterment of our planet. We're ready to turn this annual gathering into a hub for community building year-round. We have proven that we have the tools, strategies and passion to grow this work, and our community, year to year. Now we need your help to bring more resources to this critical work and effectively meet the urgency of this moment. With your support, we can become a sustainable operation - in every sense of the word - that provides programming and community organizing support all year.
