What lessons can we draw from the accessibility movement to enhance our efforts in scaling climate action?

Did you know that April is Autism Awareness Month? Let's use this month to acknowledge the challenges our autistic colleagues face while celebrating their many unique contributions. "There is no one way to be autistic — each individual with autism experiences it differently — but together, autistic people make industries, communities, and our Nation stronger... Here in the United States, more than 5.4 million adults are autistic, and 1 in every 44 children has been diagnosed with autism...Autistic people continue to face obstacles when seeking employment, health care, education, and housing, and the immense contributions of people with autism are often overlooked.
