ALISON GANNETT:
With three nonprofit, two for profits, a 75 acre farm and a professional skiing career, Alison Gannett has a lot on her plate. Although, as a warrior for climate change, there is not much Alison sees as impossible.

Determined to walk the talk, she strives for 100% self sufficiency at her farm in Paonia, Colorado. Alison has created real change speaking as a climate change consultant to businesses and audiences large and small. She recognizes the deep connection between the environment and her outdoor passion with the Save our Snow organization and inspires other women to fall in love with the outdoors by teaching them how to ski, mountain bike and surf with her Rippin’ Chix camps.

But, there are some things Alison just can’t control. No matter the effort, despite her hard work, there will still be challenges even she cannot overcome. This MoveShake story brings us into Alison’s life as an eternal optimist as she faces the destruction of the everything she has built, and what that vulnerability has taught her.

GREGG TREINISH:
With a young entrepreneur’s spirit, National Geographic Adventurer of the Year Gregg Treinish set out with the ambitious goal to change the relationship we have with the great outdoors. Founding the nonprofit Adventurers and Scientists for Conservation in 2010, Gregg has found an outlet for making a difference by connecting a vast community of adventurers with scientists in need of data collection around the world. This MoveShake story takes us into Gregg’s journey as a change maker as he discovers the highs and lows of dedicating his life to what he believes in. This inspiring tale of a troubled kid saved by the outdoors shows that all it takes to pursue our dreams is a little bit of courage.
