With an academic background in adult education and philosophy, complemented by more than two decades of experience in technical analysis of climate change, Yuill applies the lenses of social-cultural dynamics and physical science to projects. Yuill worked on some of the first community climate action plans in North America and is an internationally recognized expert in climate mitigation and adaptation. He has led some of the most complex and high profile climate planning projects for governments at all levels in North America. In addition to project work at SSG, Yuill is a long-time participant in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change processes. When not at his desk or in project meetings, Yuill is tracking down remnants of ancient forests, building bookshelves for an ever expanding collection, climbing trees with his kids, and dreaming of the world as it could be.
