Where We’re Working

California

From recording-breaking wildfires to rising seas, the costs of a warming climate continue to burden California families. The state’s largest wildfires on record have all burned in the last decade, and warming temperatures are shrinking snowpacks in the Sierra Nevada, threatening ski seasons and the rivers that depend on snowmelt. Along California’s coast, rising sea levels are harming fisheries and wiping out kelp forests. These effects place a significant threat on California’s $81.5 billion outdoor recreation industry, which supports over 545,000 jobs.

With key Congressional House races up this year, California voters have a huge opportunity to use their vote to protect the outdoor spaces where they live and love to recreate.

Elections in California are won by razor thin margins– often by just a few thousand votes. By activating California’s skiers, hunters, anglers, cyclists, surfers, and climbers to volunteer for just two hours, we can help climate champions win across the ballot in November.
