What is Climate Ride?

Picture
​Mission: “To inspire and empower citizens to work toward a sustainable future. By using personal challenge as a means to change lives, Climate Ride is building an effective, citizen-based sustainability movement.”

Climate Ride empowers participants to actively engage in the fight against climate change by completing multi-day bicycling and hiking events to fundraise for the organizations they value most and take action together for the planet.

Immersive outdoor experiences and personal challenges are powerful tools for generating behavioral change to help ignite activism on climate policy, raise critical funds, and influence public opinion.
