 We had a BLAST Running Up For Air all day on Mt. Sentinel.  We've already raised over $12,000, and there's still time to DONATE to those who spent their Saturday running up and down for clean air.  The funds help our "Summer Smart" efforts. Thanks Runner's Edge for this new, cool, Missoula event.

Recent Highlights & Newsy Stuff:

We launched the Climate Ready Missoula plan, which we've been co-leading with Missoula County and the City of Missoula, at City Club on January 13th. For more information, visit climatreadymissoula.org

Thanks to all who joined us for our 2nd Annual Clean Energy Expo. Hundreds of Missoulians braved the blustery weather to meet solar installers, learn about transportation & zero waste, and hear from leaders on climate commitments. There was even a surprise appearance from aliens from another planet (!), who had lots of questions about how energy works here on Earth. Meet Al and Ian via our blog here.

September 20-27 was Climate Strike Week. We are inspired by the energy and powerful voices of young people leading the way.  Learn more about the strike HERE.
