PROJECTS
California Climate Expedition
The California Climate Expedition was created to show what is happening to our environment firsthand and to fund much-needed research that will educate policymakers, corporations, and the general public about the ever-changing climate. The ride begins in Oakland, CA and ends in Los Angeles, CA. Throughout the journey, riders can expect to learn about the environment and the impacts of climate change by expert climate scientists from UCLA.

Support Us
State funding cannot cover everything we want to accomplish – we rely on endowments, grants and philanthropic gifts to make up the difference. These additional funds go to the programs, projects and outreach that would otherwise languish. We are immensely grateful for this support.
