In July 2026 thousands of people came together to make this region’s 2026 PNW Climate Week something truly special. What unfolded wasn’t just a week of events – it was a week of connection, creativity, learning, and action.
We put together a short recap to celebrate what we all built together here in Portland. Instead of trying to document everything that happened, we chose to capture the moments, people, and stories that made this year so special.
One attendee captured his PNW Climate Week experiences, which are beautifully described HERE.
Thank you for helping create a climate week in Portland that welcomed new voices, centered youth, inspired action, and reminded us that climate work can also be welcoming, hopeful, and joyful.
We’re incredibly proud of what this community accomplished together, and we’re already imagining what’s possible for next year. We hope you’ll continue building it with us.
