As someone who works with words, it’s been hard to find the words for this moment and message. So, this will be imperfect because my heart is too full. In sum, I loved this work and I will miss it immensely. There’s something so special about cities: ➡ The city’s connection and proximity to the community and the potential it brings to do engagement differently and in ways that are more empowering, participatory, and multi-purposed. It’s been inspiring to see this work become more intersectional; to see social, economic and environmental issues and offices collaborate and departments de-silo; and to witness behavioral and social science get more traction in city offices. What incredible progress. ➡ The city’s sustainability offices and their teams who are tireless in their dedication to the work and persevere against all odds. I’m inspired daily by this cohort and our colleagues. This work isn’t easy and yet they keep bringing it in ways that can carry us through the most overwhelming of times. What an incredible community. ➡ Our cities’ willingness to take risks, tell their stories, and lead by example. It gives me so much joy every single time one of our city colleagues decides to bravely tell their story, asks for help on a new campaign, or encourages a rethink on how their city is doing communications and engagement. What incredible innovation is happening here. I loved this work for all of these reasons and more. And what an honor to walk with and learn from so many incredible leaders in this space. I am eternally grateful to all of our members – across the CNCA, USDN and SSDN ecosystems – for being willing to approach this work differently, creatively and courageously. It’s not easy disrupt the status quo and “the way we’ve always done things”. But we must and these cities are. So many of our cities are re-envisioning communications and engagement work in the climate and sustainability spaces and it’s so inspiring. Truly. I will always be a cheerleader and champion for cities, and I can’t wait to hear what they do next. To these many friends and more, onward and upward.

A Farewell to Michael Shank: Celebrating Years of Dedication to CNCA's Mission and Community The Carbon Neutral Cities Alliance (CNCA) bids a heartfelt farewell to our exceptional Director of Communications and Engagement, Michael Shank, Ph.D., as he embarks on new adventures after many years of dedicated service. Michael's leadership and vision have been instrumental in shaping CNCA’s communication strategies and amplifying our message across the globe. His ability to connect with diverse audiences, craft compelling narratives, and inspire action has left an indelible mark on our organization and the broader climate movement. Throughout his tenure, Michael has been a driving force in fostering collaboration and engagement among cities committed to achieving carbon neutrality. His work has not only elevated the profile of CNCA but also empowered cities to share their stories, challenges, and successes in the fight against climate change. As we say goodbye to Michael, we extend our deepest gratitude for his unwavering commitment, creativity, and passion. Please join us in wishing Michael all the best in his future endeavors. We are confident that his next chapter will be as impactful as the one he has shared with us. With warm regards, The Carbon Neutral Cities Alliance P.S.
