We know you might be wondering, how do I fit in the climate movement? In Colorado, we’ve seen the fossil fuel industry ignore public health and safety and site fracking, coal plants and oil refineries right by our neighborhoods, endangering our loved ones’ health, safety and futures. This must end now. Together we can stand up for the people and places we love. We can grow our skills and our movement to create the change we need at home and at the national level.

Join 350 Boulder County from 1-4pm for a Climate Leadership Workshop!
Join us for this free workshop and find out how you can get involved in the climate movement in Colorado. This will be an excellent opportunity to skill up and learn how to organize within a multi-generational movement. This workshop will use interactive activities and multimedia to teach you skills you can use in organizing, movement building and shutting down the fossil fuel industry.

It's time to skill-up, expand, and deepen our ability to stand up to the fossil fuel industry at every level. Will you join us for an incredible afternoon of learning? RSVP today! ... See MoreSee Less
