Protect Our Winters

Protect Our Winters (POW) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organisation that focuses on law reform for environmental issues and civic engagement campaigns such as sharing news from climate scientists.

According to the nonprofit's policy webpage, POW focuses its efforts on legislation regarding carbon pricing, solar, public lands, and transportation.

In December 2012, POW worked in partnership with the Natural Resources Defense Council to publish a study determining how climate change is affecting the economy of the winter sport and tourism industry in the United States.
