Abby Litchfield is the Communications Officer at the Science-Based Targets Network (SBTN). SBTN is developing science-based targets for nature for both companies and cities, so they can comprehensively address their environmental impacts across biodiversity, land, freshwater, and ocean health. This work builds upon the climate-focused targets provided by SBTN’s sister initiative, SBTi.
In addition to her work at SBTN, Abby is a musician—an accomplished singer/songwriter, pianist, and recording artist. With over 15 years of experience performing and four years releasing music, she increasingly merges her musical and sustainability passions. Abby writes songs inspired by the complex emotions tied to climate change and has performed her sustainability-themed music at conferences around the world.
