This session is exploring how effective altruism can uncover high impact but neglected solutions and organizations, using the case study of the Clean Air Task Force (CATF), a global climate organization. Prior to 2018, CATF was effective but small, relatively unnoticed and underfunded. Founders Pledge scrutinized and validated CATF's work ithrough EA methodology and recommended it as a worthy charity; this endorsement and FP networking has allowed CATF to scale rapidly to global impact. This talk is exploring what we can learn from this, for climate and beyond, about impactfully engaging in causes that are not meeting typical neglectedness criteria.
