Lost the Plot is a climate initiative founded by Kara Rodby in Chicago.

We bring together professionals working in and around climate to do something most of our careers don't make space for: talk honestly about the state of the climate, question the premises of our work, and build community around the hard conversations that mainstream climate discourse tends to avoid.

Lost the Plot takes the form of a monthly virtual seminar series, in-person events, and collaborations with aligned organizations. What unites it all is a commitment to critical thinking over comfort, and a belief that naming what isn't working is a necessary first step toward building something that does.
