Arielle V. King will be joining us as our 2025 keynote speaker.

Arielle King is an environmental attorney, educator, and strategist who works to make environmentalism irresistible. She is the host of The Joy Report podcast, which explores the people, stories, and solutions making an impact. With a background in environmental law and a deep commitment to education, Arielle brings a powerful blend of joy, truth, and grounded history to her work.

At the Summit, Arielle will draw from conversations with changemakers across the country—from ocean conservationists to brands prioritizing circular economies. She will facilitate conversation on emerging climate trends, the challenges today, and how we can each find our climate-forward niche. Her keynote will energize us to lead with resilience and purpose in building a more equitable, sustainable future.
