Join us at climate conference in April
Have you heard of CCL? Citizens Climate Lobby is an engaged group of spirited and informed citizens working together across 420 chapters in the United States to build bipartisan solutions to climate change in Congress. Locally, there are six chapters in Utah, including one in Salt Lake City and one in the Wasatch Back (Summit and Wasatch counties).
CCL is holding a conference for the Mountain West region in Ogden on April 5-7. This special event will feature keynote speaker U.S. Rep. John Curtis, numerous panel discussions and breakout workshops with the ski industry, students, various liberal and conservative advocacy groups and more. Attendees will leave with a myriad of new contacts, in addition to an understanding of how to talk to their Member of Congress and advocate for climate-smart policies.
The fee to attend the conference at Weber State is $25-$99. Register at https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ccl-mountain-west-regional-conference-tick…. This conference welcomes all ages from all realms to learn a fresh perspective on our changing climate and leave with a positive outlook. Utah is doing some great things!
Climate change is here — revealed by hotter summers, droughts, wildfires, and health problems due to pollution. This conference aims to educate and inspire folks to work with members of Congress to continue to take action now and years to come. And if the conference timing doesn’t work, please join CCL SLC or Wasatch Back for our monthly meetings at https://citizensclimatelobby.org
