Highlights from Samantha Cooper
She has an academic background in chemistry.
She left BP in 2015 to find a more meaningful path than the oil industry.
Business Declares came out in April 2019 after the IPCC report was published. In those early days, they were focusing on raising awareness for business to act. Now, climate is at the heart of every conversation they are having with business leaders.
