For 10 years, Grist’s list has highlighted people from across the country who are working on solutions you likely weren’t aware of — people who are quietly changing our future. We’ve profiled 500 “Fixers” doing unusual and interesting work, fighting on behalf of their communities, inventing new ways of doing things, and showcasing the diverse and creative ways of addressing the climate crisis. 

This year, as climate action faces stronger headwinds than ever, we’re checking back in with those leaders to see what they’re working on now, what challenges they’ve encountered, and what’s still giving them hope. Check out online Q&As, live events, and more, updated regularly throughout this year.
