Fiscal Year 2024 (October 2023–September 2024) was a busy and productive year for the Northwest Climate Hub. Our team reached more than 3,100 people through presentations and partner engagements, 2,200 people through our monthly newsletter, and an additional 266,000 people through our website. Our communications team developed more than 24 new web articles on various climate change topics. This year also marked the 10-year anniversary of the USDA Climate Hubs. We celebrated this occasion through a new website, a StoryMap, and several social media “focus days” on USDA and Forest Service social media accounts, resulting in more than 20,000 engagements.
2024 saw a record-setting fire year in Oregon, and record-setting flooding caused by a glacial outburst in Juneau, Alaska. As we face these challenges, the Northwest Climate Hub remains committed to helping natural resource managers, tribes, and communities mitigate and prepare for the continued effects of climate change in the region. This report highlights some of our key accomplishments for the year, and we look forward to building on this work in the years to come.
