We protect what we love.
Mtn Bio is a climate-centered educational nonprofit creating a vibrant local community around climate solutions and sustainable living practices.
Our goal is to answer the number one question asked of climate scientists:
“What else can I do?”
With a team of young adults, we’re generating individual and collective action through engaging events, high-quality resources, and a local climate network full of inspiring people and impactful ideas.
We believe that protecting what we love motivates us to find powerful solutions and a passionate community to sustain our action for the long haul.

The Changemaker Attitude by Jordan Fox
Roaring Fork Valley native Jordan Fox tackles a question many of us carry: How do we face climate change without becoming overwhelmed or discouraged?
Through stories of innovators and changemakers from around the world, The Changemaker Attitude makes a hopeful case for individual agency. It's a reminder that meaningful change often starts with ordinary people who choose to act—and that focusing on what's possible can be a powerful antidote to inaction.

OUR STORY
Hi, I'm Beth.
I created Mtn Bio from a deep appreciation for the Roaring Fork Valley (both the people and the land) and a desire to bring my creative energy and the wisdom of nature to the daunting problem of climate change. Tough issues, like climate, often feel too overwhelming to pick up alone, but through engaging events, good conversation, and new perspectives, we begin to see what's possible.
We're a small but mighty team of valley locals building a vibrant hub that highlights climate solutions and sustainable living practices.
We host community conversations that amplify the inspiring work of local business owners, climate experts, and national thought leaders while connecting people to climate solutions aligned with their own interests and unique leverage.
From my roots in outdoor education and training in biomimicry, Mtn Bio turns to nature for inspiration and answers, recognizing that a sustainable future depends on our ability to love, learn from, and lead with nature in mind.
Welcome to the crew - we’re excited you’re here!
Mtn Bio is rooted in a simple belief:
Nature is brilliant.
We have a lot to learn about living sustainably on our planet from 3.8 billion years of life.
Stay in the loop!
