In the rush to decarbonize the economy, one critical resource remains wildly underutilized- and that's people.
Millions of workers—especially in historically excluded communities—stand ready to contribute to the green transition. What they lack isn’t talent, it’s access.
Dr. Kala Fleming is here to change that.
A civil engineer turned technologist, she’s the founder of Frontline Gig, an AI-powered platform that helps everyday workers enter the green economy through paid, hands-on gigs. From tree-planting and emissions tracking to solar surveys and resilience upgrades, Kala’s platform connects overlooked talent to real work—and real wages—in climate-forward industries.
🌱 Call it the on-ramp to climate resilience.
Dubbed the “Uber for green jobs,” Frontline Gig helps people who prefer hands-on, outdoor work find local training programs and land jobs with organizations working to mitigate the impact of climate change. It’s workforce tech with a climate justice backbone.
