Our Mission

“In every deliberation, we must consider the impact on the seventh generation . . .

even if it requires having skin as thick as the bark of a pine”

— The Constitution of the Iroquois Nations: The Great Binding Law

7th Generations Advisors empowers individuals and organizations to create and adopt solutions that protect our environment and help offset the effects of climate change, based on the ancient First Nations philosophy that the decisions we make today should result in a sustainable world seven generations into the future. We recognize the link between climate, conservation and the health and well-being of all living things and we strive to initiate, support and implement projects that support this interconnection both domestically and internationally.

We believe that the practical tools and solutions exist for creating a sustainable world seven generations in the future. Our goal is to accelerate the implementation and adoption of those tools in order to realize this vision.

To carry out our mission, we:

  • Provide expertise and guidance: To decision-makers in government, business, non-profit, academia, and other stakeholders (based on our team’s deep expertise in each of these sectors) on environmental policies that address the urgent need to take action. This work spans from sharing knowledge to designing and implementing new projects.
  • Partner: With non-profit organizations and other key stakeholders on campaigns and initiatives that utilize bold tactics, including creative communications, value added project management, fundraising and investor education/outreach (based on our experience with environmental advocacy and celebrity empowerment/engagement, among other relevant skills).
  • Research and Educate: We educate through speeches, op- eds, books, our Personal Climate Action Centerand Good News Roundup and through social media.
  • Support and Coordinate: As advisors we are uniquely positioned to serve as a hub of facilitation and support for our partners and projects.

Though our programs we aim to support and contribute to the following goals: 

  • Protect: Protect habitat that is essential to climate adaptation, species and global sustainability (Thriving Lands, Waters and Wildlife)
  • Advocate: Contribute to the reduction of GHG emissions and adaptation by advocating for solutions that can be standardized and adopted within a generation. (Thriving Climate)
  • Educate: Communicate the entirety of the solutions and opportunities that currently exist that can assist in combatting the climate crisis. (Thriving Communities)
