Join San Diegans from all communities and backgrounds alongside climate organizations, innovators, educators, and companies as we come together to take action. Sign up on our mailing list to be the first to know about year two!

San Diego Is Experiencing
The Escalating Effects Of Climate Change

Extreme heat, rising sea levels, poor air quality, and environmental injustice. Over the past year, our communities have been affected by fires, floods and heavy air and sea pollution, the time is now to come together and protect our beautiful home. San Diego is the most biologically diverse county in the continental United States and is home to the largest coastal wetland in Southern California. Public awareness and coordinated community action are weak & fragmented. Frontline communities disproportionately bear the brunt of climate impacts and are left out of policy and decision-making processes. SD has an urgent need for inclusive, place-based climate engagement that connects diverse sectors & empowers residents, businesses and politicians to take action. Join Us!
