“Putting oxygen into the climate story motivates us to do the work to understand the deep systemic changes happening in our complex atmospheric and oceanic systems…[and] points the way to new approaches to climate solutions—ones that encompass an enhanced understanding of the life support system of our planet and that complement drawdown to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide.”

“The fast and yet slow pace of climate change, along with the geographically dispersed nature of the impacts, can make a collective risk accounting seem overwhelming. Yet there is an interplay between climate risk and certain mitigation measures; we need to factor the risks into how we approach solutions.”

“Science has shown that ensemble techniques (running more than one model result) can lead to enhanced predictability by illuminating the range of possible outcomes. This is especially important looking out to longer time horizons, and allows for a quantification of uncertainty,” Pullen said.

“It joins the mounting evidence about the scope and magnitude of climate-change impacts,” says Jupiter Intelligence director Julie Pullen, an ocean scientist at Jupiter Intelligence who reviewed an earlier version of the report. And because the report drills down into the local-scale impacts, Pullen adds, it gives Americans a realistic view of exactly how climate change influences their day-to-day experiences.

"This is an important federally-mandated report encompassing the latest science," says Pullen, who will assist the National Academies in peer-reviewing the report issued by a consortium of 13 federal agencies. "As such, the regional specificity of climate change impacts represented in this report will be important to the nation."

“We pay very close attention to the science on a viable path forward around carbon dioxide removal,” said Propeller partner Julie Pullen, a climate scientist and oceanographer. “We also think that there’s underlying technologies associated with building those markets, for instance monitoring, reporting and verification to substantiate that the carbon sequestration is happening.” A New VC Fund Will Put $100M into Decarbonizing the Ocean, Bloomberg, 25 October 2022

“According to Halligan and Julie Pullen, chief scientist and partner at Propeller, companies that may be ripe for investment include those in the ocean carbon space, including ventures that are trying to solve carbon reduction measurement and verification.” New Ocean Tech Fund Makes Waves, Axios, 20 October 2022

“A lot of people think of climate tech as just carbon sequestration but the solutions are way more vast, including the oceans.” Dr. Pullen says. “And women’s investment is an overlooked climate solution. The lens is planetary stewardship.”

“The ocean is vital,” Dr. Julie Pullen, an oceanographer and co-founder of Women Power Our Planet, which works to mobilize women around climate solutions, said in an interview. “It’s actually been buffering climate change for us, and that’s a tremendous service.”

“Some of the tipping points, we just don’t know what those limits are,” Dr. Pullen said. “So the best course of action is really just to recognize that every moment matters. As quickly as we can undertake sustained climate action, the better off humanity is going to be in creating a life-supporting planet for our children and their children.”

“70% to 90% of frontline workers are women relative to 50% of women in the workforce,” notes Julie Pullen, Director of Product at Jupiter Intelligence and a fierce advocate for feminine leadership on climate, “so the differentials are substantial and magnified in a pandemic.”
