Our 
Mission

Get to Know Us

 1000 Gretas’ Mission is to identify and help innovators pursue sustainability solutions with the goal of surfacing those likely to have the greatest impact. 1000 Gretas will give young bright people passionate about solving global climate change a platform for their ideas via funding, tools, contacts, and know-how. The organization has a multi-tier model to help vet those ideas to achieve escape velocity and feed into incubators. The model will help identify, educate, fund, and assist the next generation of climate change entrepreneurs(Hackers, tinkerers, investors, and scientists.)
