SF Climate Week 2025 kicked off with a defining moment: a powerful keynote from former U.S. Vice President and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Al Gore. Speaking to a packed room at the iconic Exploratorium, Gore set the tone for the week—framing it as a pivotal moment in the fight for our climate and our democracy.
In this wide-ranging address, Gore underscores the critical connection between climate change and democracy, denounces fossil fuel disinformation, and calls on individuals, businesses, and governments to take bold, immediate action.

Dorceta Taylor spent decades pushing back on the idea that environmentalism ‘wasn't a Black thing.’ Now she's rewritten its history.
Though she loved nature and the environment from an early age, Dorceta Taylor often found herself as the only Black student in her science classes in the United States, a new experience for her after growing up in Jamaica. Throughout her American education, she recalled being told that “Black people weren’t interested in the environment.” “For the first 20 years of my life,” Taylor said, “it was everybody eats, everybody breathes air, everybody needs clean water, and so that racial dimension to it wasn’t there.”
