Exciting news! Clean’s President & CEO, Scott Skinner, has been named one of Canada’s Clean50 honourees for his incredible work in climate action! He was also named as part of the Clean16, which recognizes 16 Honourees who are top contributors in their categories, as the top contributor for Advocates and ENGOs. Under Scott’s leadership, Clean has more than tripled in size since the pandemic, expanding programs that drive climate initiatives across NS, PEI, and beyond. As Chair of the Minister’s Round Table on Environment and Sustainable Prosperity for Nova Scotia, and through various advisory positions, Scott’s influence has helped shape climate policy across the country. From supporting the development of Nova Scotia’s Green Hydrogen Action Plan to creating equitable clean energy training and employment opportunities, Scott’s impact is transforming communities and building a cleaner, more inclusive future for our region. Scott was in good company today alongside several other Atlantic Canadians who were also announced as Clean50 Honourees. Congratulations, Scott!
