ABOUT // WE LOVE CITIES:
Park City is the U.S. winner of the WWF One Planet Cities Challenge! This has qualified us to join the We Love Cities challenge, putting us up against 58 cities around the world. We Love Cities is a social media public engagement effort to share sustainability and climate work accomplished by the Park City community.
To win the We Love Cities Competition, Park City must generate the most “votes” via social media. To prompt votes, we invite you to join the campaign by highlighting your favorite actions that will save our planet on social media, and inspire others to do the same. Your social post can be of anything, as long as it uses the #weloveparkcity hashtag.
Help us celebrate, vote, and win the global challenge!
