Welcome to The Zenergy Podcast! As we conclude our DC Climate Week series, it seems only fitting that we end with an interview by one of the founders and organizers of the event, C’pher Gresham. C’pher and Karan sit down to discuss the genesis of DC Climate Week, how it aims to bring the DC community together for a great cause, and how it all started with a question: What does DC need? C’pher breaks down the logistics of putting together such a big event and we learn how the decentralized structure of DC Climate Week works. We chat about learnings when creating a brand new event and we peer into C’pher’s future hopes for climate conferences.
