Here in the Hudson Valley, people are building the future they want to live in – recognizing that our small contributions are a necessary part of something larger . Climate Solutions Week brings neighbors, innovators, artists and organizers together to share what's working. Together, we  imagine and invent what's next - local, hands on, and scalable. However you show up, you're part of the momentum toward regional  solutions and community
