Peggy Liu, Chairperson of JUCCCE, has been a leading environmentalist at the forefront of China’s green movement since 2007. Dubbed the “Green Goddess of China” by the Chinese press, Peggy travels the world consulting with companies and governments on catalyzing societal-scale change, scaling sustainable innovation, and collaborating with China. She keynotes globally, sharing lessons learned from addressing China’s toughest environmental challenges, such as pollution, urbanization, epidemics, drought, obesity, and diabetes.
Peggy’s strength lies in uniting people to create a better future quickly. Her “Tornado Leadership” methodology integrates policy, economic, technical, and spiritual realms to drive significant changes across China:
She organized the MIT Forum on the Future of Energy in China, which led to the formation of JUCCCE. This forum marked the first public dialogue between US and Chinese officials on clean energy, heralding China’s journey to becoming a global leader in renewable energy investments.
She introduced Smart Grid technology to China, revolutionizing electricity distribution and allowing for scalable renewable energy and energy efficiency. China now leads the world in implementing Smart Grid innovations.
She educated 1000 Chinese government leaders on sustainable city development, shaping eco-city trends and establishing China as a world leader in building sustainable cities.
She catalyzed China’s shift from incandescent to energy-efficient lighting, establishing China as a global leader in LEDs.
In 2010, she created the China Dream initiative to reimagine prosperity through sustainable consumerism. “China Dream” is now a national slogan, embedding a healthy environment into China’s national identity.
She launched Food Heroes in 2013, educating children and parents on planet-friendly eating, leading to more sustainable diets and strict food waste policies in China.
Peggy is a World Economic Forum Young Global Leader and has received the “Hillary Step” award, considered the “Nobel” of climate change. The Economist named her “one of the most innovative thinkers in Asia.” Previously, Peggy was a venture capitalist and founder of one of Silicon Valley’s earliest e-commerce companies, earning her the title of “Internet Pioneer” by Red Herring. She began her career as an MIT-trained engineer and McKinsey consultant.
Peggy Liu dedicates her life to personal and planetary health, believing that heart-based storytelling is the most helpful skill and that cultural translators will be crucial in the next generation.
