A foremost expert on climate change mitigation planning, he has led teams in developing leading climate action plans for all levels of government as well as institutions across North America. A big vision thinker with an eye for detail, Jeremy helps guide projects to establish and achieve ambitious goals through tangible actions. He is experienced with community energy and emissions modelling, climate change mitigation and adaptation planning, policy development, green building systems and policies, integrated design facilitation, and public engagement. Jeremy credits a 10,000 km cross-Canada bike ride climate action campaign he did in 2001 for instilling his passion for this work.

Noah (he/him) is a climate activist disguised as a software developer. His work ranges from the system architecture and back-end development of modelling platforms, to building front-end tools to bring the models to life. He brings years of experience in modelling cumulative land-use effects, ecosystem goods and services, and integrated resources management as the architect and senior application developer on several spatial modeling tools that have been used globally. Noah is keenly interested in sustainability and built a passive house on a permaculture property using local materials. He enjoys playing piano, sailing, and mountain biking with his family when he’s not keeping tabs on his two boys, flock of heritage chickens, and cats Pippi and Max (not necessarily in that order).
