Where We’re Working
Colorado
With fickle winters threatening ski seasons and reducing the number of powder days, Colorado’s $5 billion ski and winter sports industry is in harm’s way. In the summer, a warming climate has made fire season more extreme, and restricted access to many of the warm-weather landscapes coveted by Coloradans. The frequency of wildfires has reduced air quality, making it difficult for Colorado residents to enjoy hiking, camping, running and biking. Climate change isn’t just affecting outdoor recreation: A lack of water puts the state’s fast-growing population at risk and harms the rural Western Slope’s ranching and agriculture industries.

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