Our grass roots path to success
SOURCE: Clarivate
DESCRIPTION:
“Clarivate is in a unique position to leverage the responsibility and opportunities we have as a leader in our industry, to positively impact climate change, one of the defining issues of our time.”
Patrick Simpson, Director of IP Maintenance – Make a Difference to Climate Change Executive Sponsor
We’ve kicked off our Make a Difference to Climate Change initiative to highlight our responsibility and seize opportunities - as a leader in our industry - to act now. We want to be part of the solution for climate change, today and for years to come. Our goal is to be a positive force to impact climate change - one of the defining issues of our time. We started with a group of 20 colleagues who were tasked with creating a plan to address two key priorities:
- Making an impact on scale: How can we power the ideas and innovations that will ultimately help solve the climate change problem, by using our position in the IP industry?
- Reducing our own footprint: Acknowledge that change starts within. By implementing actions that raise awareness and reduce our own consumption, we'll do our part to help positively impact climate change for years to come.
