On November 15th and 16th, 2019 in Flagstaff, Arizona, Northern Arizona University, Arizona state University, University of Arizona and communities throughout the state convened on the first statewide, solutions-focused climate summit.

This summit featured talks from nationally-recognized voices and researchers on climate change such as Katharine Hayhoe and indigenous performances such as hip-hop artist Xiuhtezcatl Martinez, and former Governnor of Arizona and Secretary of the Interior Bruce Babbitt.
