Free Climate Guest Speaker Explains How We Solve Climate Change To Groups Nationwide

Donald Addu, of Raleigh-Durham, head of climate partnerships at Climate Vault Solutions, has joined Free Speakers - A Pro Bono Speakers Bureau. A North Carolina native, he holds a bachelor’s degree in ecology and environmental biology from Appalachian State University and a Master of Public Administration from North Carolina Central University.

Addu has worked on climate issues for more than a decade, including as senior director of programs for Citizens Climate Lobby and board chair of CleanAireNC. He serves on the advisory board for the School of Management at Appalachian State.

He offers, “How We Solve Climate Change,” which covers mitigation, adaptation and carbon dioxide removal. It is designed for audiences with limited scientific background.

Groups pay nothing to book a speaker through the bureau, including fees, honorariums and mileage. Addu speaks online for groups nationwide.

“A lot of groups want a climate talk they can follow without a science degree. This one is built for that,” said Ginny Richardson, founder of Free Speakers.
