The mission of the Climate Crisis Working Group (CCWG) is to study and share information about climate change and take effective climate action in Moore County and beyond. The group's vision is to raise awareness and empower the nation, united in rapidly stemming the impact of climate change and building climate resilience in our country and across the world.

Drought, extreme weather, rising costs, development pressures and labor challenges are challenging farmers across the country. Meanwhile, climate change — the very force behind many of these struggles — is driving a surge in demand for clean energy, transforming farmland into solar fields.
The documentary film “Save the Farm, Save the Future” follows Colorado farmers and ranchers, from sheep and cattle ranchers to peach growers and small organic farmers, as they explore agrivoltaics, a newer approach that combines solar power and agriculture on the same land. Here in the Sandhills, there are several agrivoltaic farms already in operation. On Thursday, Oct. 1, the Climate Crisis Working Group, in partnership with other local organizations, will present a free screening of “Save the Farm, Save the Future” at Congregational Church of Pinehurst, 895 Linden Road. Doors open at 6 p.m., with the film starting at 6:30 p.m. The evening will include an introduction and several short films, in addition to the main feature, followed by a panel discussion and Q&A session. During intermission, attendees will have the opportunity to visit information tables for the Climate Crisis Working Group of Moore County, League of Women Voters Moore County, Poor People’s Campaign Sandhills Circle, Sustainable Sandhills, Dogwood Alliance, Sandhills Pride and Congregational Church of Pinehurst. Snacks will be provided and raffle tickets for sustainable gifts will be available for purchase. Attendees are asked to bring their own reusable drink containers.
SF Climate Week 2025 kicked off with a defining moment: a powerful keynote from former U.S. Vice President and Nobel Peace Prize laureate Al Gore. Speaking to a packed room at the iconic Exploratorium, Gore set the tone for the week—framing it as a pivotal moment in the fight for our climate and our democracy.
In this wide-ranging address, Gore underscores the critical connection between climate change and democracy, denounces fossil fuel disinformation, and calls on individuals, businesses, and governments to take bold, immediate action.
