Amazing report with a promising vision for rural America.

“Despite a turbulent start to the 2020s, an important and positive message for rural America is emerging in the decade ahead: rural communities have a significant opportunity to strengthen and diversify their local economies by embracing and actively engaging in the ongoing renewable energy transition.”

A healthy population lives in balance with natural elements. In our fourth and final Systems Change event video, you can find out how actions taken on your front step and in Montana's towns can have a great impact on waterways, biodiversity, climate action, and your community. Hear about wildlife friendly and food producing lawns, the cultural and ecological significance of local native plants, and transitioning away from chemicals for safe public spaces. This event was co-sponsored with our friends Stories for Action.

This was the second in our Systems Change series, where we looked at personal actions we can take to make a positive impact, and examine how those actions bridge into system-wide changes. We focused on what’s happening in Missoula and greater Montana to promote the decarbonization of our transportation system, and ways for Montanans to make change in their personal lives, and beyond.

The first in our Systems Change series. This panel discussion covers how to decarbonize your money from personal investments, and business or organizational investments, to where you bank. And, it dives into how a new local carbon offsets program might work, providing local investment opportunities that will make a difference.
