I believe that we must understand and engage with the great social problems of our era to achieve lasting progress. I commit to developing a robust understanding of the causes of these issues, promoting fact and analysis based diagnosis and problem solving while maintaining a skepticism around the influences of partisanship and ideology in decision making.
I commit to genuine and intellectually honest engagement with our most important issues, fostering open-minded dialogue with peers, stakeholders, and champions of change.
By signing this pledge, I make these commitments publicly, and allow Impact to share my name as a proponent of this vision for the advancement of social progress.

Spencer is working to make the consequences of climate change more vivid, intuitive, and useful. Collaborating with scientists, designers, technologists, and other concerned generalists like him, he founded Probable Futures, which will soon make local and global projections of heat, drought, wildfire, and other variables available, for free, to anyone in the world.
For 18 years, Dr. Glendon was a Macroanalyst, Partner, and Director of Investment Research at Wellington Management, an investment management firm with more than $1 trillion in client assets. In that role, he spent several years focusing on models in climate science and finance, and understanding the gaps between the two disciplines and their practitioners.
Beginning in 2017, Spencer devoted himself exclusively to collaborating with Woodwell Climate and others to research the effects of climate change on civilization and share those findings publicly. Probable Futures was founded in 2020 and aims to change how we think about, talk about, and plan for the future of our society and our planet. Probable Futures, in partnership with Woodwell Climate, is building better frameworks, tools, and storytelling to help people prepare for—and choose between—the futures that the climate offers us.
Dr Glendon has a BS in Industrial Engineering and a PhD in Economics with a focus on economic history and cities.
