Steve Jewett

Serial entrepreneur, inventor and search-and-rescue volunteer Steve Jewett (Geog) is founder of Clean Trails, creator of National CleanUp Day. He is the U.S. host of World CleanUp Day, which this year is Sept. 15. Steve has climbed all of Colorado’s fourteeners, plus Denali and Aconcagua. On Sept. 15, he encourages alumni to join 380 million others in removing litter or trash in their neighborhood, park, trail, river, lake, open space or favorite mountain peak. “Our goal is elimination of trash/litter to enjoy clean spaces, rivers and oceans,” he writes.
