Great work Ryan & John! I already got my book and I love it. Have you thought about building a public repository of climate OKRs where organisations and people share their objectives and key results? Users could also crowdsource any OKRs published by organisations on their website or any media. I think it could encourage every person and organisation to write and share their own climate OKRs, collaborate, etc. I wrote about this idea a few years ago here: https://okr.earth

John Doerr’s OKR Starter Kit

Maker

@hector_perez_arenas Yes! We will be updating speedandscale.com to show the current state of the Speed & Scale OKRs. Our hope is to launch that version in January. We want it to live as a public tracker. From there...we'd love to use that as a springboard for the community to share *their* OKRs. 🙏🏾

John Doerr’s OKR Starter Kit

We can conquer our emissions crisis. The challenge is clear: we must eliminate 59 gigatons of emissions before 2050. Two years ago, John Doerr and I set out to answer a question: What will it take to go from 59 gigatons to 0 by 2050? What started out as a spreadsheet of OKRs turned into over 100 conversations with experts from around the world on what goals we need to set and measures we need to track. And those conversations became a book: Speed & Scale. Speed & Scale is an action plan. It contains 10 Objectives and 55 Key Results that focus on how to get us to net-zero. Speed & Scale tracks the gigatons we emit, and the actions needed to go from 59 to zero by 2050, based on the wisdom of policy leaders, entrepreneurs, scientists, & activists. Lynn Jurich powering our homes with solar. Ethan Brown moving us beyond meat. Christiana Figueres raising the bar for COP26. Bill Gates backing the innovations we desperately need. Margot Brown demanding an equitable and just transition. If you’ve never picked up a climate book before, Speed & Scale outlines the six critical levers to remove 59 gigatons of emissions that will help you wrap your head around the scale of the problem. The book then shares four accelerants—policy, movements, innovation, and investment—that speed the transition to net-zero. If you are deep into climate, we invite you to shape this plan. Where can the Speed & Scale OKRs be more ambitious? What key measures are we missing? How do we navigate both the opportunities and the tradeoffs? Most of all, how do we work together? Let's go for the gigatons.

@johndoerr @5harath @rypan Thank you! Love the idea, and love seeing OKRs out there in the "real world". I spent a good 6 months brining them into our business a few years back! How are you going to communicate and track the ongoing progress?

@johndoerr @5harath @rypan I've now looked through your link properly - these really are great. Brilliant next-step from Gates' book - turning his optimism into measurable steps. Which do you think are the hardest to achieve? I guess I'm least optimistic about the "Win Politics and Policy" KRs..

@nik_hazell Yeah this is super interesting - great to see some actionable goals. Have a lot of questions though, the solutions are still super broad in some areas and I wonder how they're explored within the book, definitely seems worth a read
