The opening keynote was provided by Assistant State Climatologist Peter Goble of the Colorado Climate Center.

Breakout sessions featured presenters from across Colorado State University, with topics like hydrogen power, impacts of food sources and waste, wildfires, fast fashion and more.

The day closed with a keynote from Hilary Klein, associate director of engagement at the Energy Institute.
