Join us for a short outdoor adventure film projection followed by an interactive discussion with Protect Our Winters (POW) and a leader of the international finance industry, exploring how athletes, businesses, and individuals can use their voices and influence to drive systemic change.
Reducing our individual carbon footprints matters, but meaningful climate action goes beyond personal choices. Through POW's experience and perspectives from the business world, we'll explore how a passion for the mountains can inspire climate advocacy, and how students can use their future careers and influence to help accelerate the transition towards a more sustainable world.
