This is YOUR Future

You look at seed catalogs in December. You buy snow blowers in June. You mend nets in August. You prepare for your future guided by your hopes for the future. 

So let’s all brush aside the fog of uncertainty clouding our vision over these last 18 months and prepare for the future we want in Cook Inlet.

After 26 years of working with you and seeing you take action, Cook Inletkeeper can envision a bright future for salmon habitat, renewable energy, local foods and community engagement. 

Our wild Pacific salmon – with cold, clean and intact habitat – will continue to support families and local communities because you helped elect local and state leaders who support salmon-friendly policies and are willing to enforce them.

We’ll have an equitable renewable energy system because you voted for electric co-op directors who commit to making this happen. We’ll see investment flowing into a decarbonized energy infrastructure because this is the only responsible and economically viable thing to do. 

Our food system will be localized and responsive to community needs while regenerating our natural environment. Community food hubs and farmers markets will support local food producers and processors with good paying jobs for more robust economies. 

Your news feeds will be filled with stories and art celebrating the resilience, adaptation and success of our Inlet communities. You’ll see how your conversations with friends and family have taken root in new ways of thinking and doing.

This is the vision that inspires and motivates us to keep working for the future of Cook Inlet.

All these things are within reach if we prepare, take action and work together. The staff and Board of Directors of Cook Inletkeeper are in! Join us!

We need you with us today to protect what we all love and value about this incredible place. Your donation and support helps move us towards the future you want in Cook Inlet. 

With gratitude for your vision,
