UPG is South Florida’s first Climate Active organization — founded in 2008 to take on the causes and impacts of climate change. We don’t just talk about solutions; we build them. Every day, we mobilize communities to make South Florida a sustainable, resilient home for both people and wildlife through hands-on projects, smart policy, and bold innovation.
There is work to do, lives to protect, and ecosystems to restore right now and we’re not waiting. UPG is preparing young people to meet tomorrow’s climate challenges, healing the environmental damage left behind by past generations, and teaching the next generation how to build a more resilient future.
Who benefits from UPG’s work?
- Critically endangered wildlife
- Future generations
- Our coastal and upland ecosystems
- Clean, healthy water for all
- Nearshore Reefs
