Biography

Michelle is the founder of clever carbon. She launched her career in Silicon Valley where she worked for some of the biggest names in tech including Salesforce. A proponent for making sustainability the new norm, Michelle founded clever carbon to help teach people about carbon footprint in a hip, fun, and relatable way because what gets measured gets changed. She is a TEDx, SXSW, Bloomberg, and COP28 speaker on the topic of carbon literacy and is a United Nations content contributor. Michelle believes that a carbon literate society will accelerate solutions and actions at the speed and scale required for a thriving planet.

Michelle is also the founder of Women and Climate, a non-profit organization that inspires climate action by creating a joyful and safe space for more women to learn and talk about climate.

"As a conference producer, I’m always on the look out for game changing solutions and individuals creating a meaningful impact. Michelle's support at our CCUS Forum in Doha was nothing short of exceptional. She launched a 'Women and Climate' event as part of the forum that energized the audience and rallied women to work in climate, and in her role as the Master of Ceremonies for our full day of technical workshops was truly inspiring. Michelle not only motivated our attendees to connect and engage but also encouraged us all to be mindful of our carbon footprint throughout the event. Her unwavering professionalism, dedication, and inventive ideas have significantly elevated the quality of our conferences. We consider ourselves fortunate to have crossed paths with Michelle and are eagerly anticipating her return for our upcoming event – preparations are already underway!” Executive Producer, Birba Energy
“Michelle Li was a keynote speaker at our annual Tech Conference. Michelle was a consummate professional throughout the entire planning process. Michelle has a masterful understanding of the carbon footprint of common, every day actions and what is required for employees to feel empowered to create meaningful change within their own companies. Her talk was engaging, timely, and relevant and her "carbon footprint quiz" was informative and fun and fully aids others in making more informed, sustainable decisions every day. I highly recommend Michelle as a speaker for sustainability related conferences and content.” Educational Program Manager, NAEM
“Michelle moderated two roundtables on ocean innovation hosted by the Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation during COP28 in Dubai. Her thorough preparation, including individual meetings with speakers, and her handling of last-minute changes demonstrated her commitment and flexibility. Michelle's deep understanding of carbon-related topics played a crucial role in facilitating meaningful discussions, providing ample space for diverse perspectives on complex issues.It has been a real pleasure working with her and I look forward to our next collaboration.” Secretary General, Executive Director, Fondation Prince Albert II de Monaco
