Designed to foster conversations, increase awareness, and lay the groundwork for actionable solutions, this free event is powered by the Flathead Valley Chapter of Citizens’ Climate Lobby (CCL).
Please note, with the FVCC environmental club dormant in 2024 we were unable to connect with a campus host, and this event is not endorsed by the College. We hope to find a host for future years, please be in touch if your student group at FVCC is interested!
Together, we'll explore the intersection of nature and technology, aiming to create a livable climate and a better world.
