​We've got 2.5 months to go until the first-ever Houston Energy and Climate Week begins. Here's our first official update. Many of you are looking for a way to contribute. 

​We've got a theme for this year: We do hard things. We think this is a fitting way to capture the essence of this week and all that our great city and region is doing for the energy transition.

​We have also published our Unity Commitment, which sets this week apart from others. The changing climate is our battleground, not each other. Please have a read, and let us know what you think.

Stay cool. It's getting hot out there. - Juliana & Katie
