The final quarter of the year is upon us, and change is all around. Whether it is in the season and the transforming trees and creeping cold, or the feel of easing into a slower time of year. While we transition into this grounding season we are celebrating the hard work and passion of the October Climate Hero of the Month – Valley Lopez! While Valley’s journey with 350 Colorado winded from intern first to then staff member, we’re going to focus this post on the beginning of his time.

April is a big month for environmentalists, climate activists, and really anyone that loves this good green Earth we call home. With Earth Day on Saturday 4/22 and many opportunities to celebrate with incredible community groups along the way, we are so thrilled to be honoring Emma Weber as the April Climate Hero of the Month!

Changing seasons invites the opportunity to reflect and embrace what it means to be both vulnerable and strong at the same time. Trees become more exposed in dropping temperatures when losing their leaves in the Fall. Budding flowers in the Spring endure random snowfall and uncertain conditions from day to day.
