Charlotte Gilmour
Managing Director, Environmental Impact
Charlotte joined Yulu in 2017 to found its Environmental Division and scale the practice of climate communications. Since then, Charlotte has had the privilege of representing over 30 climate action leaders, including organizations in sustainable industries, decarbonization, conservation and restoration, climate adaptation and climate justice.
As a communicator who is British by birth and Canadian by choice, Charlotte is uniquely placed to lead communications programs across North America and Europe. A great example is the global launch of Carbon Engineering and its Direct Air Capture solution, which won two PR industry awards (Gold Stevie’s Award and PR Daily Award).
Charlotte is an advocate for communications being a catalyst for climate action, and has been a speaker on this topic at Queens University, Georgia University and Mount Royal University. Charlotte has also been a 3x judge for the Synergy Foundation’s ‘Net Zero Incubator Program’, which incubates businesses that are implementing circular economy concepts in British Columbia and beyond.
Charlotte dedicates her time and energy to reversing the climate change trajectory both inside and outside of the office. Charlotte has repeatedly rallied support for the annual Climate Strikes in Vancouver, with the highlight being in 2019, where Charlotte secured over 100 B Corp CEO signatures supporting climate action.
Outside of the office, Charlotte can be found on the North Van trails in her barefoot runners, riding (baby) waves on her surfboard, and exploring the wilderness with her two nature-loving sons and her spirited cockapoo.
