The Pikes Peak Climate Stories Project is a new public research network dedicated to collecting stories, experiences, and visual traces of climate change in the Colorado Springs area and Pikes Peak region at large. We aim to create a dynamic, community-centered record of how people and landscapes are changing, through small, public-facing narratives, audiovisual pieces, and interactive maps shared on a new project website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a time of climate denialism and reactionary environmental policy, we turn to the everyday lived experiences of communities in our region to build a digital archive of environmental transformation. Through stories, short written reflections, videos, and audio recordings, the project documents how local residents, workers, and landscapes are already experiencing climate change in their own lives. Our archive is intended both as a public resource \u2014 one that people can use to situate and make sense of their own sensory and embodied experiences \u2014 and as an open invitation for community members to contribute their stories to a growing, collective record.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Project Organizers<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Based at Colorado College, we are a group of faculty and staff whose research and teaching about the environment span the natural and social sciences. We are committed to place-based, community-centered scholarship that takes seriously people\u2019s everyday experiences of environmental change.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
