Why is it important for Salesforce to be a part of Climate Week in addition to the UNGA?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><em>DiBianca:<\/em> The world is facing a climate crisis, and no one can solve it alone. In 2021, Salesforce set forth our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/content\/dam\/web\/en_us\/www\/assets\/pdf\/reports\/salesforce-climate-action-plan.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Climate Action Plan<\/a>, laying out six priorities for ourselves and offering them as a model to other organizations committed to the fight to cap global warming at 1.5\u00b0C. Our core values \u2014 Trust, Customer Success, Innovation, Equality, and Sustainability \u2014 are inextricably linked to how we think and what we do around climate action, and that\u2019s why we\u2019ve integrated these priorities into the core of our business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But we need everyone on board. We are representing Salesforce at Climate Week and the UNGA to share what we\u2019ve learned with our peers, and deliver solutions to public- and private-sector organizations that share our nature positive, net zero ambitions. Most importantly, we&#8217;re here to learn, listen, and empower innovators and ecopreneurs who share our vision.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Loeb:<\/em> Our voice and our influence are powerful tools to drive change. That\u2019s why Salesforce works with lawmakers and regulators around the globe to support policies that positively impact our employees, customers, communities, business, and planet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, in the United States, we supported the climate provisions of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 because it included profound clean energy and climate investments that will promote a more sustainable future, reduce pollution, and create jobs \u2014 especially in communities that have been historically marginalized.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ll continue using our voices and expertise to lend support to efforts we believe will improve peoples\u2019 lives and benefit our stakeholders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<aside class=\"more-from-block

We aim to use this policy to help inform lawmakers about the importance of accounting for risks when drafting regulations that will guide the future of AI. Many of our sessions during UNGA with partners like Leaders on Purpose, USCIB, Concordia, UNESCO, and Goals House explore ways in which generative AI can help accelerate progress towards specific SDGs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More information:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Read how Salesforce <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/company\/public-policy\/?d=cta-body-promo-8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">advocates<\/a> for a more innovative, sustainable, and equitable world<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Learn how Salesforce is building a more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/company\/equality\/?d=cta-body-promo-8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">inclusive workplace and world <\/a>for all<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Learn more about Salesforce\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.salesforce.com\/news\/stories\/nature-crisis\/%5C\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nature Positive Strategy<\/a>&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Learn how Salesforce is investing in nature via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.1t.org\/pledges\/100-million-trees-conserved-restored-and-grown-by-2030\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">1t.org<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Salesforce will support a week of impact with conversation, collaboration, and continued progress at the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) and Climate Week NYC.
