Hey CATs, Welcome to issue 125 of the climateAction.tech (CAT) Newsletter, your weekly summary of what’s happening inside the CAT community, and in the wider world of climate and tech.

Sign up to the corresponding event, and ask in cat-coffee for more. There’s a few really interesting roles in jobs this week - go check it out ðð½ CAT Community News * New to climateAction.tech?
