ORLANDO, Fla.<\/span>, March 19, 2026<\/span> \/PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE\/ — Scientists, entrepreneurs, policymakers and communicators gathered in Orlando this month for Climate Correction 2026<\/b>, VoLo Foundation’s flagship conference focused on accelerating practical solutions to the global climate crisis.<\/p>\n

\"VoLo<\/div>\n

Held March 10-11 at The<\/b>\u00a0Celeste Hotel<\/b>, the event brought together\u00a0292 participants and 46 speakers<\/b>\u00a0for two days of discussions on science-driven climate action, nature-based solutions and cross-sector collaboration.<\/p>\n

Built around the theme\u00a0“Nature Powered Solutions,”<\/b>\u00a0the conference created a forum where science, innovation, culture and community engagement intersected to explore strategies for reducing climate risks and strengthening resilience.<\/p>\n

“You don’t have to do it all, but you have to do something,” said\u00a0Thais Lopez Vogel<\/b>, co-founder and trustee of\u00a0VoLo Foundation<\/b>, in closing remarks. “When you touch hearts and emotions, that’s when people act.”<\/p>\n

Cross-sector collaboration<\/b><\/p>\n

Throughout the conference, speakers emphasized that tackling the climate crisis requires cooperation among scientists, businesses, governments and local communities.<\/p>\n

The event also featured the presentation of the\u00a0VISTA Award<\/b>, a grant program supporting graduate students developing innovative climate solutions in Florida. This year’s award went to a team from the\u00a0University of Miami<\/b>\u00a0for its project,\u00a0“Functionalization and Pre-Carbonation of Florida-Native Algae Biochar for Carbon-Negative Cementitious Composites,”<\/i>\u00a0which explores new approaches for low-carbon construction materials.<\/p>\n

Television host\u00a0Zay Harding<\/b>\u00a0also addressed attendees, highlighting technological innovations featured in the sustainability series\u00a0The Visioneers with Zay Harding<\/i>. He emphasized the importance of communicating climate solutions in ways that inspire people to act.<\/p>\n

The show is produced by\u00a0Hearst Media Production Group<\/b>\u00a0with VoLo Foundation<\/b> as its exclusive production partner and airs Saturday mornings on\u00a0CBS<\/b>.<\/p>\n

Nature as infrastructure<\/b><\/p>\n

A central theme of the conference was the role of\u00a0nature-based solutions<\/b>\u00a0in addressing climate challenges.<\/p>\n

Sessions such as\u00a0“Greening the City”<\/b>\u00a0examined how integrating green infrastructure into urban environments can help reduce heat, improve air quality, mitigate flooding and strengthen community resilience. Researchers also highlighted the importance of addressing environmental inequities, noting that underserved neighborhoods often face higher heat exposure due to limited access to green spaces.<\/p>\n

Experts also pointed to the importance of\u00a0Everglades restoration<\/b>\u00a0as a critical component of Florida’s climate resilience strategy. Healthy wetlands help improve water quality, protect ecosystems and support industries and communities that depend on reliable water resources.<\/p>\n

Speakers stressed that strengthening environmental protections, improving land-use planning and investing in ecosystem restoration can generate significant long-term economic and social benefits.<\/p>\n

Case studies presented during the conference \u2014 including Rock The Ocean (Tortuga Music Festival) and 4Ocean \u2014 highlighted how businesses and cultural events can mobilize large audiences and generate measurable environmental impact.<\/p>\n

A collective effort<\/b><\/p>\n

Organizers said the conference underscored a common message: meaningful climate progress requires collaboration, innovation and community engagement.<\/p>\n

“Climate action is a collective effort,” Lopez Vogel said. “Each of us has a role to play.”<\/p>\n
