Events

It is with a heavy heart that we must announce that Thursday's Michigan Climate Action Summit, at the University of Michigan Union in Ann Arbor, has been canceled.

Gov. Whitmer issued a coronavirus state of emergency, and public health officials are recommending that large events like ours be canceled. We are looking into options to reschedule and will be in touch. So sorry for the inconvenience, but thanks for your understanding in the interest of public health.

Get motivated to act on climate through inspiring speeches and strong plenary panels. Then, roll up your sleeves to dive deep in engaging breakout sessions.

Summit Schedule

Gov. Whitmer will be the Keynote speaker at this year's conference! We are also honored that tribal leader Frank Ettawageshik and Ann Arbor Mayor Chris Taylor will be kicking off the summit. Stephen Edel will be joining us from New York to share how the NY Renews coalition passed the strongest climate and equity policy in the country.

The Summit will bring together the general public, climate advocates & scientists, activists, and policymakers in order to move Michigan toward just and rapid action to address the climate crisis.

Let's make equitable climate action a top priority for the Whitmer administration and set a bold agenda for Michigan's leaders to make the state of Michigan a leader on climate justice!
