Climate Action Corps

Climate Action Corps

The OIA Climate Action Corps was founded in January 2020 with the goal of bringing together brands, retailers, manufacturers, and suppliers while supporting organizations to harness the power of collaboration to address the threat of climate change to the outdoor industry.

In partnership with PeopleforBikes, the Corps unites a diverse mix of outdoor businesses of all sizes, product types, and in varying stages of climate action to accelerate progress toward reducing GHG emissions, harnessing the power of nature to remove more carbon than we emit, and advocating for robust climate policy.

Corps members commit to share progress annually, demonstrating accountability toward a shared industry-wide climate-positive goal and emphasizing progress over perfection.
