I’m a little late in posting this, but hopefully you all will forgive my tardiness.
On June 12th, I and twelve other riders (all in college or recently out) hopped on the first-ever green certified motor coach for a two month journey across the country highlighting people and communities nationwide finding solutions to environmental and Native American issues.
Dubbed the Udall Legacy Bus Tour, we’ll be chugging along until Aug. 4th when we hit Tucson (map of where we’ve been/where we’re going) which is where the the Morris K. Udall Foundation — the organization behind this whole thing – is HQ’ed. The Bus Tour is the culmination of year long celebration of public service marking the 10th anniversary of the Foundation’s education programs including the undergraduate scholarship , Native American summer internship, and dissertation fellowship programs. Between now and then I hope to post some of the most interesting initiatives addressing climate change we’re learning about in the communities we’re visiting.
Stories, photos, and video from all our stops are on our blog and website. We’ve got a few weeks left to go, and we’d love any and all feedback !
