At age 13, Taylor Francis wrangled an invitation to training for the The Climate Reality Project, and spent most of high school presenting the concepts in libraries and schools near his home. Today, he's the co-founder of Watershed, a five-year-old, $1.8 billion software startup that helps companies track and curtail their greenhouse gas emissions — including notoriously hard-to-address Scope 3 emissions from supply chains. Watershed’s clients include Airbnb, BlackRock and FedEx. It manages data covering 479 million metric tons of emissions, more than the carbon footprint of France. And it $100 million Series C round in February 2024, led by GreenOaks and including Kleiner Perkins and Sequoia, valued the firm at $1.8 billion. I'm excited to interview Taylor for Aug. 28 episode of Climate Pioneers, a Trellis Group video interview series that goes deep with innovators working to mitigate the climate crisis. Among the things I'll ask: - How Watershed wins deals in an increasingly crowded software category - Questions every sustainability exec should ask before buying ESG software - How Watershed is prepping for upcoming changes to the Corporate Net Zero Standard and GHG Protocol accounting guidelines What would you ask?

What is measured can be managed; What is managed can be reduced. This summer, we’ve hit a major milestone in our mission: 1 gigaton of emissions under management (and counting)! 🎉 To put that into perspective, the aggregated carbon footprints of our customers now surpass: - The annual emissions of Japan, the world’s 4th largest economy. 🇯🇵 - The emissions from driving all passenger cars in the US. 🚗💨 When we launched Watershed, our ambitious goal was to cut 500 megatonnes (or 1%) of the world's emissions annually by 2030. We knew that making a real impact meant thinking big. Today, thanks to the vision and commitment of the companies we partner with globally, we're making meaningful progress toward that goal – together. #Sustainability #ClimateAction #ClimateTech
