Where We’re Working

New Mexico

The land of enchantment is known for its breathtaking high, arid deserts where snowy peaks meet sagebrush. New Mexico’s burgeoning outdoor recreation economy is at risk as dangerously hot summer days and drier winters become more common. A shifting climate leaves skiers, snowboarders, hikers, rafters, trail runners and mountain bikers uneasy and wanting normality as seasons become increasingly more difficult to predict. More frequent wildfires also caused by intense heat and drought have decreased air quality across the state, bringing the potential for negative impacts on health and enjoyment for New Mexicans trying to get outside.
