Our team is still buzzing from our last Tune In & Tune Up event with Valley CAN —and what a kickoff it was! 🎉 We had over 75 test drives and rides, with the Ford Mustang Mach-E as the crowd favorite. Attendees also had the chance to explore a full lineup of new and used EVs and plug-in hybrids, including the Chevy Bolt EV, Toyota bZ4X, Honda Clarity, and more! Special thanks to Electrify America for supporting this and to our partners at Valley CAN, students from California State University, Fresno, and the local Central Valley community for making it all possible. This is just the beginning—stay tuned for more events in the region as we continue to bring hands-on EV experiences to communities! #TuneInTuneUp #ValleyCAN #DriveElectric #CentralValley #EVEducation #CleanTransportation #ElectrifyAmerica

CEO, Founder of Climatebase & SF Climate Week (April 19-27, 2025) 🌎 Building community to accelerate climate solutions 💪
AL GORE is coming to SF Climate Week!! 🎉 I are honored to announce that former U.S. Vice President and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Al Gore will deliver the keynote speech at the Welcome Ceremony of SF Climate Week 2025. Late last year, when my incredible colleague Lyla Warren asked me to create a wish list of keynote speakers for our Welcome Ceremony, Al Gore topped that list—not necessarily because I expected we’d land him so soon, but because I’ve always deeply believed in aiming high, even when a goal feels slightly out of reach. Seeing this happen—Al Gore actually joining us—is surreal, humbling, and deeply inspiring. Al Gore's participation at SF Climate Week is especially meaningful and thematic. He’s courageously called out uncomfortable, inconvenient truths—like how traditional climate conferences, including COP, are often co-opted by fossil fuel interests. His boldness aligns perfectly with our vision for SF Climate Week: a truly community-powered event where the interests of the people—not oil companies—take center stage. Unlike typical conferences —which tend to be expensive, exclusive, and insider-oriented— SF Climate Week is radically inclusive. While our team at Climatebase hosts the Welcome Ceremony and a handful of other events, the vast majority of the nearly 500 events are led entirely by the broader community—democratizing opportunities for climate action and making engagement accessible to all. Personally, this moment brings my journey full circle. I vividly remember watching An Inconvenient Truth as a kid with my parents, deeply shaken by Al Gore’s message. Back then, I believed that world leaders alone would handle the climate crisis. Today, we know better. Real climate leadership emerges from the ground up—when communities rally together, break silos, and take collective action. That’s exactly the spirit behind SF Climate Week. Al Gore's keynote amplifies SF Climate Week’s role as a lightning rod for collective action, bold ideas, and community-building at a time when the world feels profoundly divided, distracted, and overwhelmed. Gatherings like this offer a rare space for people to forge meaningful connections and generate the momentum we need to accelerate climate solutions—together. HUGE thanks and congratulations to Morgan Campbell, Lyla Warren, and our entire Climatebase team for making monumental moments like this happen. Welcome Ceremony will take place: • Monday, April 21, from 4 PM -7 PM • Venue: The Exploratorium Important Note: 🔹 Spots at Welcome Ceremony are extremely limited. We encourage anyone interested to apply to attend, but please note that registering does not guarantee a spot. 🔹 However, we’re excited to offer a limited number of guaranteed spots at the Welcome Ceremony to individuals selected at random. To enter the drawing for one of these guaranteed spots, simply reshare this post on LinkedIn. I hope to see you there! 🌎🎉 #climate #sustainability

🌟 Mayor Lurie Charging Up SF's Electric Revolution with 12 New Fast Chargers in the Mission! 🚗⚡ Proud to stand alongside San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie 丹尼爾·羅偉 as we cut the ribbon on Revel's groundbreaking first West Coast charging station in the Mission District—a pivotal moment that's supercharging city's clean transportation future. 12 cutting-edge, high-capacity chargers now stand ready to power the city's electric dreams. ⚡️🔋 The Bay Area is blazing a trail nationwide, with over 35% of new vehicle sales being electric in 2024, compared to a national average of just 8%. 📊🚀 Revel is set to add 125 more chargers across the Bay Area, dismantling barriers to EV ownership and creating gateways to a cleaner, more sustainable city landscape. 🌿🏙️ Publicly accessible 24/7 and compatible with any EV, these chargers are more than infrastructure... They're a promise of a better future: a promise of cleaner air, reduced emissions, and a resilient future where clean and safe public, biking, and vehicle transportation isn't the exception—it's the norm. 🌍💚 And between you and me? This is just the beginning. Stay tuned for more exciting announcements of other EV projects in the pipeline that will continue to position San Francisco at the forefront of the electric vehicle revolution! 🔋🌱 Huge thanks and congratulations to the Revel team of Paul Suhey Jake Potent Gregory Evans Frank Reig!

Great News! Our team is looking forward to SF Climate Week Climatebase— exploring innovative climate solutions, and supporting the movement toward a cleaner, more sustainable future!
🎉 ANNOUNCEMENT: We are honored to announce that former U.S. Vice President and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Al Gore will deliver the keynote speech at the Welcome Ceremony of SF Climate Week 2025! Vice President Gore is one of the world's most influential climate leaders, known for raising awareness through his groundbreaking documentary "An Inconvenient Truth," which shaped public discourse on climate change. His continued leadership through initiatives including The Climate Reality Project and Generation Investment Management has had a profound ongoing impact, empowering activists globally and investing in sustainable innovation and the transition to a sustainable economy. This year, SF Climate Week will gather over 25,000 attendees across more than 450 events, and has become one of the world's most important gatherings at the intersection of environmentalism and innovation. At its heart, SF Climate Week exemplifies the transformative power of community—breaking down silos, fostering cross-sector collaboration and reconnecting people through shared purpose. Al Gore’s keynote further amplifies our mission by drawing on his unparalleled experience and vision, helping to accelerate momentum in the climate movement. “Few figures in the environmental movement command the global recognition and respect as Vice President Gore does,” says Evan Hynes, co-founder of Climatebase and SF Climate Week. “His keynote amplifies SF Climate Week’s role as a lightning rod for collective action, bold ideas, and community-building at a time when the world feels profoundly divided, distracted, and overwhelmed. Gatherings like this offer a rare space for people to forge meaningful connections and generate the momentum we need to accelerate climate solutions—together.” “Each year, SF Climate Week generates even more energy and urgency for meaningful change,” says Morgan Campbell, Director of SF Climate Week at Climatebase. “Vice President Gore's participation reminds us that when we act together, our collective power is unstoppable.” Welcome Ceremony will take place: • Monday, April 21, from 4 PM -7 PM • Venue: The Exploratorium, the largest net-zero energy museum in the U.S. and a global leader in science learning and education. Important Note: 🔹 Spots at the Welcome Ceremony are extremely limited due to venue capacity. We encourage anyone interested to apply to attend, but please note that registering does not guarantee a spot. 🔹 However, we’re excited to offer a limited number of guaranteed spots at the Welcome Ceremony to individuals selected at random.
