About Our Climate Reality Chapter
In 2006, Nobel Laureate and former US Vice President Al Gore got the world talking about climate change with the Academy Award-winning film An Inconvenient Truth.
It was just the beginning of a climate revolution. Later that year, he founded what would become The Climate Reality Project to move the conversation forward and turn awareness into action all across the Earth.
Today, as a Climate Reality Chapter, we’re a diverse group of passionate individuals who’ve come together to solve the greatest challenge of our time. We are activists, cultural leaders, organizers, scientists, storytellers and students committed to building a sustainable future together.
Most of our members live within commuting distance of the Twin Cities. Currently, most of our meetings are held via Zoom.
