Planet Visionaries – Ep 6: The Solutions Project with Mark Ruffalo and Gloria Walton

35 minutes

In this episode of Planet Visionaries, a landmark podcast series in partnership with the Rolex Perpetual Planet Initiative, host Alex Honnold meets actor and climate advocate Mark Ruffalo, co-founder of The Solutions Project, and Gloria Walton, the organization’s president and CEO.

Together, they share how their movement is shifting power to frontline communities and driving a transition to renewable energy. From the streets of South-Central Los Angeles to the halls of Hollywood, Ruffalo and Walton reveal how real change happens when those most affected by climate change are the ones leading solutions.

For nearly a century, Rolex has supported pioneering explorers. Over time, the company has moved from championing exploration for the sake of discovery to protecting the planet. Through the Perpetual Planet Initiative, Rolex stands alongside the inspiring people who are dedicated to building

a better future for all life on Earth.

Planet Visionaries returns in January.
