Meeting the Moment:
​Climate Change in the Age of the COVID-19 Pandemic

We find ourselves anxious, challenged and resolved. As the COVID19 crisis is with us, let's build community. Check out our blog for what we're thinking + how you can join. Read our piece in the Missoula Current: Thoughts on social distancing, advocating and assisting.  
May 18. The Climate Ready Missoula  was just adopted by the Missoula County Board of Commissioners and City Council:  climatereadymissoula.org.  Hurray!

Missoula Gives!  

120 individuals came together to raise just over $8000 for Climate Smart Missoula

And the larger community raised ~$775,000 for 138 organizations. We are so grateful.

Thank you all.
