Climate One at The Commonwealth Club is a thriving leadership dialogue on energy, the environment and the economy. It brings together top thinkers and doers from business, government, academia and advocacy groups to advance the discussion about a clean energy future.

In 2007, Greg Dalton and a group of Commonwealth Club members visited the Arctic Circle aboard a Russian icebreaker to witness the effects of climate change firsthand. After being informed, alarmed, and compelled to do something, Greg founded Climate One, a branch of the Commonwealth Club dedicated to promoting dialogue on clean energy, economy, and the environment between business leaders and community activists. In 2011, Climate One will examine strategic climate change issues with a specific focus on food and agriculture, transportation, and building and land use.
