These Grant Partners built upon their Invoking the Pause connection while attending the COP21 in Paris.  The Special Post COP21 Grant will allow them to continue that connectivity into 2016:

• Impact Hours (Mark Schapiro - Investigative Journalist, Andy Behar - CEO As You Sow, Alicia Escott - Artist/Bureau of Linguistical Reality, Reinhard Hohlwein - Environmental Consultant, Tara DePorte & Lauren Lavitt - Human Impacts Institute):  5 - Monthly one hour video calls/chats with guest presenters, in a mini-salon format.  The general theme will be about communicating climate change strategies and ideas post-COP and how each of their organizations can expand its reach, mission and message.

• As You Sow & Reinhard Hohlwein: Taking active steps towards forwarding the connection between climate change investment solutions and waste management practices.  As You Sow and Reinhard Hohlwein will present a pair of interactive workshops in Northern California about the divest/invest practices of As You Sow engaging with the established organic waste handling community.
