Role: Co-Director, Cinematographer

Brooks trail athlete, pastor, and coach Mario Mendoza is working to leave a legacy in his community of Central Oregon. His positive influence reaches every corner: from his immediate neighborhood to the vast trails that provide him a deep sense of pride and purpose. Over the years, Mario has watched the places he holds dearly ravaged by wildfires due to the impacts of global warming. But Mario has faith in the future. Mario believes the youth he mentors has the power to help change the trajectory of our climate and protect the trails that connect us all.

Brooks actively supports projects to restore forests destroyed by wildfires and is committed to restoring and preserving natural areas. Our climate change action plan is designed to take the right steps toward ensuring clean air and accessible trails for our future generations.
