The Cascadia movement today has inspired tens of thousands of people to be active about the issues that they most care about, and continues to inspire a unique regional identity found within the Pacific Northwest. For many of us, Cascadia is more than just the region we live in. It has become a collective identity stemming from our shared experiences and stories of this place. This identity allows us to come together as a community and social movement to act as a powerful force for change, to build a framework so that every person can be active about the issues they care about, and a vision for a bioregion that is vibrant, autonomous and resilient. Nature acts bioregionally, and culture stems from place.
