For those of us who work to make a positive impact on the world, there is often a default towards focusing on big national and international level issues.

Between the rapidly worsening climate crisis, national campaigns to preserve Mature and Old growth forests, decarbonization and electrification fights, never-ending election cycles, on and on,  it’s easy to forget that there are important local, grassroots struggles happening in communities everywhere that deserve our support and attention.

Local campaigns are, for a variety of reasons, overlooked and underappreciated. But that's where a small number of dedicated people can have an outsized impact, and cumulatively, these local fights can translate into big wins..

I am going to work to highlight some of those campaigns this year, and we’ll learn about two of them today.
