My name is Christen Cromer. I am a senior associate at the Aspen Institute, and one of the people in charge of production for<a href="https://www.aspenideas.org/pages/aspen-ideas-climate" id="LPlnk" title="https://www.aspenideas.org/pages/aspen-ideas-climate"> Aspen
Ideas: Climate</a>. Aspen Ideas Climate is an event taking place from July 20th to July 22nd. It gathers thinkers, leaders, and doers together to discuss solutions for the climate crisis. </div>

Looking at your website, I was curious on understanding what ways your organization might be interested in partnering with our event to facilitate or actionalize climate solutions. I'm envisioning something like a seed bomb workshop activation or something
similar that many hands might be helpful to shepherd. Any thoughts?</div>
