Hello!
CfP for KubeCon Europe (March 2020) is open till Dec 4. It is a great place to find more cloud people & get them involved. A call to action on using people’s skills for anything climate science related would be very well received I think. Would be awesome to have a talk there

Lots of folks on twitter have offered to help review it. https://medium.com/@LachlanEvenson/lachies-7-step-guide-to-writing-a-winning-tech-conference-cfp-4fa36a0d2672 has some tips.
