This year’s TIME100 Climate List spotlights Moms’ Co-Founder and Director, Dominique Browning (pictured), as one of the “Defenders” in its catalog of the “100 most influential leaders” driving climate action. Outlets across the world celebrated this achievement, including The Legal Planet and Exame. Dominique also got a shout-out in the Sheeky Daily Read newsletter.
In her Time profile, Dominique explains she believes investing in renewable energy is a crucial step to advance the climate agenda—and should be taken by all individuals, companies, and levels of the government. Specifically calling out CEOs of oil companies, she encourages corporations to step into the future, reimagine their business models and promote renewable energy portfolios.
