## Resource

HumanizeHer x Shangri La "Visionary Voices" brings HumanizeHer's signature conversations to Shangri La, a Center of Cultures & Ideas and Museum of Islamic Art in Honolulu, Hawai'i, featuring three special episodes with visionary women leaders from Hawai'i.

The AI x Climate Paradox: A deep dive into how AI is simultaneously increasing energy demand and providing the "three-fold" acceleration needed to solve complex problems in energy, materials, and infrastructure.

Action as the Antidote: Addressing "climate anxiety" by empowering individuals…
