"I care about climate action because I like to be outside-running up mountains, floating the river with my family, and hiking with my dog. Clean air and water are important to me." - Jodi Pilgrim, Parking Commission
"I care about climate action because I enjoy many outdoor activities with my friends and family, such as hunting, boating, and fishing. I want our forests, lakes, and rivers to be available and enjoyable for my kids in the future. Smoky summers aren’t fun for anyone to be outdoors in and means habitat loss for animals." - Brian Hensel, Deputy Public Works Director for Streets
"I care about climate action because I value the biological diversity that exists in and around Missoula between humans, plants and animals. We are lucky to live in Montana where many species call this home or use it as a migration corridor-from butterflies to pronghorns." - Jeremy Flesch, Vice Chair of the City's Energy and Climate Team
"I care about climate action because I would like to leave the world a little bit better than I found it. This encompasses a lot of things, but ensuring a livable environment is near the top of the list." - Megan Smith, Court Administrator, Municipal Court
The City of Missoula's Climate Action team works to lead by example, continually striving to ensure that our internal operations are low-impact and efficient, and works with community partners to provide services, infrastructure, and support to help our residents, businesses, and institutions reduce their environmental footprint to ensure a clean and healthy future for all.
The City and its partners have adopted ambitious goals, including:
100% Clean Electricity by 2030
Carbon Neutral in City Operations by 2025
Carbon Neutral in Community by 2050
Building a resilient community to withstand the current and future effects of climate change.
