Rick Wayman (pictured) had been leading the Foundation for Climate Restoration, but significant changes to its funding arrangements forced it to become a pure volunteer organisation and so he has now stepped away from his Chief Executive Officer role, and the group itself, allowing it to become what it needs to be under its new regime.

Contact was first made with Rick as he sat through the group's recent annual forum, which he knew would be his last.

It was the foundation's Fifth Annual Climate Restoration Forum and you can learn more about the foundation and its work by watching these YouTube videos.
