Other ways to help out.
We're on the look out for more POW alliance members. We're keen to chat to anyone who has a large influence in any outdoor sport (skiing, snowboarding, trail running, mountaineering, mountain biking, climbing, adventure racing etc etc), is passionate about protecting the places they love from the impacts of climate change and keen to use their platform to share POW's advocacy work. If you know of anyone who would be a good match please get in touch.
If anyone has any photos they can share with us we are always in need of more content. We're especially keen to get some photos of groups of climbers, hikers and mountain bikers. Send them our way if you've got any!
Nga Mihi,
The team at POW
