Climate leadership is vital. A five-fold increase in climate action ambition and commitment will not necessarily be popular nor easy.  Those who hold the pen must dig deeper, fight harder and not just find their own way through but motivate others to do the same. What does it take? To find out we are asking inspiring leaders working in the climate space one simple question:  'What is The Climate Leadership That Inspires You'?  

Join our conversation about climate leadership and contribute to a rising expectation of leadership from national and sub-national government, industry and civil society. Use #ClimateAction and @unep to tell us who inspires you and share your reason why for a chance to be published.
