AWARE has a seat at the table—for Whistler’s climate future

AWARE Whistler is proud to represent the voice of the environment on the Resort Municipality of Whistler’s (RMOW) Climate Action and Environment Committee.

This committee plays a vital role in shaping the policies and priorities that guide our community’s response to the climate and ecological crises. From emissions reduction to ecosystem protection, the decisions made here will influence the future of Whistler for generations to come.

Why It Matters

As Whistler’s environmental charity, AWARE brings over 30 years of local knowledge, advocacy, and science-based solutions to the table. Our seat on the committee ensures that nature has a voice in conversations about development, transportation, energy, and more.

What We’re Doing

  • Advocating for ecosystem health and biodiversity protection
  • Supporting nature-based solutions to climate challenges

Helping ensure that community sustainability efforts are accountable and ambitious
