Tennessee native Erica Davis recognized that rural communities often see little benefit from local oil and gas extraction. Collaborating with grassroots organizers in Campbell County, she researched and sponsored a bill to reform oil and natural gas severance taxes.

Davis's bill aims to raise these taxes, which are the sole legislative means to keep extraction wealth in-state. Crucially, it seeks to distribute all revenue directly to the affected communities where extraction occurs, rather than the current one-third. Despite Davis's lobbying efforts and bipartisan support, the bill was dropped from the 2015-2016 docket. Now pursuing an environmental law degree, Davis plans to revive the legislation in the next session.

What began in 2012 as Jared Campbell's 24-hour run up Salt Lake City’s Grandeur Peak to fund air quality advocacy has transformed into Running Up For Air (RUFA). After 11 years, this solo project is now a worldwide movement, featuring dozens of races, hundreds of runners, and tens of thousands of dollars raised globally. It exemplifies how community-driven running can ignite change far beyond the trails.

Learn more about RUFA and how to get involved by visiting the RUFA Film. Patagonia, a supporter of this initiative, is dedicated to leveraging its resources—business, investments, voice, and imagination—to combat the threat of extinction facing all life on Earth.
