What began in 2012 as Jared Campbell's 24-hour run up Salt Lake City’s Grandeur Peak to fund air quality advocacy has transformed into Running Up For Air (RUFA). After 11 years, this solo project is now a worldwide movement, featuring dozens of races, hundreds of runners, and tens of thousands of dollars raised globally. It exemplifies how community-driven running can ignite change far beyond the trails.

Learn more about RUFA and how to get involved by visiting the RUFA Film. Patagonia, a supporter of this initiative, is dedicated to leveraging its resources—business, investments, voice, and imagination—to combat the threat of extinction facing all life on Earth.

In spring 2024, the Center for Biological Diversity petitioned the Fish and Wildlife Service to protect Wilson's phalaropes under the Endangered Species Act. These dainty shorebirds, known for spectacular congregations at Western salt lakes like Utah's Great Salt Lake, face imminent collapse due to climate change and other human-caused threats.

The Center for Biological Diversity, a Tucson-based 501c3 nonprofit, uses science, law, and media to protect species and their habitats. Believing human welfare is linked to nature's diversity, it works to secure a future for all life.

Ice Age Arizona was a cool, moist environment, vastly different from today's desert, with Meteor Crater holding a deep freshwater lake for 40,000 years. This period supported Rancholabrean megafauna, including the giant Ice Age bear, *Arctodus simus*, and early humans, evidenced by mammoth remains found with artifacts. Join NHI and archaeologist Dick Ryan to explore Arizona's glacial past, its animals, and early human inhabitants.

Dick Ryan is an archaeologist with ten years of field experience in the American Southwest and a Master's from NAU. His primary interest lies in Paleoindian mammoth hunters, a topic on which he has published extensively. He also actively promotes Mata Ortiz Pottery.

Geothermal energy, despite lower carbon emissions than coal, is not benign. Projects like Nevada's proposed Baltazor site highlight significant environmental and social costs. Geothermal development leads to habitat destruction (e.g., in Kenya and for Nevada's Dixie Valley toad) and violent evictions of indigenous communities.

Drilling releases toxic elements like mercury, arsenic, and boron into groundwater. Facilities also cause air pollution, including sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide, contributing to acid rain and health issues, as seen in Iceland. Moreover, "enhanced geothermal systems" (EGS) utilize fracking technology, injecting high-pressure slurries that can poison groundwater and induce earthquakes, mirroring problems in the oil and gas industry.
