Kind of a funny story. We were heading to the Urban Mobility event to kick off Climate Week in London. With the tube down, we decided to grab Lime/Uber bikes in a hurry, even though Florent Kaiser preferred a Forest Bike because they plant trees in the Andes. As we rode, a woman pulled up next to me and suggested I switch to a Forest bike, highlighting their sustainability efforts. I mentioned that Florent also plants trees and suggested she talk to him. To our surprise, she turned out to be the co-founder and head of legal at Forest (Caroline Seton). Her co-founder is Chilean and eager to explore projects in South America! As if that wasn’t enough, the guys from GRST, another The Earthshot Prize company making cleaner batteries for e-bikes and scooters, were also riding with us. What a crazy, serendipitous meeting! A perfect way to kick off the week with the Earthshot team.
