With a focus on products and technologies at work in the United States, Germany, Mexico, Japan and South Korea, the program demonstrates that science-based solutions already exist and can be scaled to drive further positive impact.
"Now more than ever, we need to find solutions to address climate change," said Gayle Schueller, senior vice president and chief sustainability officer at 3M.

Together with The Washington Post Creative Group, we will showcase how science can build a brighter future and inspire communities around the world to reimagine what's possible."
From a global feature on active science-based solutions around the world to an interactive 360 Immersive Experience and live programming sponsored by 3M in Washington DC, Mexico City and Seoul, the collaborative campaign will give audiences an in-depth understanding of climate issues and the solutions driving positive change.
It is the most expansive global campaign yet by The Washington Post Creative Group, with content translated into English, German, Japanese, Spanish and Korean-increasing accessibility to critical information and resources around climate change.
