"For small to medium to national organizations, for events and fundraisers of any size, in any format – live, virtual or hybrid – the platform is built for scale."

More than half of Montanans — 57% to be exact — think that some degree of action should be taken to address climate change. That sentiment is up 3 percentage points from last year, and up 12 since 2011.

The numbers were announced Feb. 20 as part of the 2020 Conservation in the West Poll, run every year as part of Colorado College’s State of the Rockies Project. Since 2011 the survey has polled voters in Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, Arizona and New Mexico on their attitudes toward a wide range of environmental topics.
