Our Future Now
Our Future Now is a collaboration between Parentology, the National Children's Campaign and Goal 17 Media. The National Children’s Campaign (NCC) is a national nonprofit organization that amplifies the voices of America’s 74 million children and youth, making sure our nation’s political leaders prioritize issues --health, education, climate and environment, child welfare, gun violence, child immigration, LGBTQ+ rights, and youth civic engagement -- that matter to those who are too young to vote. Goal 17 Media is a media network producing podcasts, videos and documentaries that inspire individuals and contribute to the common good. Our Future Now, a National Children's Campaign Podcast is co-hosted by Jonah Gottlieb and Natalie Mebane. Gottlieb and Mebane are also co-founders of NCC. Gottlieb, a high school senior from Petaluma, California, is also the captain of One Planet Living and the co-founder and president of Global Awareness. Mebane is the Associate Director of US Policy for 350, an international movement looking to end the use of fossil fuels while promoting renewable energy.
