Middle to High School

Teens, this space is for you! Your voices bring moral authority and are a powerful chorus demanding and creating climate justice. 


Talk Climate resource pages are designed to support justice-based climate education, support empowering climate conversations, and to offer ways to take climate action. 

"You cannot protect the environment unless you empower people, you inform them, and you help them understand that these resources are their own, that they must protect."  -Wangari Maathai
