Henk Rogers is the Founder of the Blue Planet Alliance, an organization advocating for islands and countries around the world to legislatively mandate a commitment to 100% renewable energy by 2045. BPA is shining a light on how the use of fossil fuels particularly impacts island nations stressed by global inflation and limited resources. With a history as a computer game developer and publisher, Henk is looking for new and better ways to fight the good fight.
We talk about:
- The fossil fuel challenge and what it takes to get commitment to zero emissions
- Building alliances with stakeholders in local, national, and global communities to reach net zero
- Case study of success in Hawaii and replicating the model with large ocean states
- Unique challenges of providing energy on islands and finding alternative sources of renewable energy
- Role of consumers in advocating for environmental change
