YOUNG ADULTS
Space for young adults to be empowered to take action for climate justice at college and university, home, and in community.
Talk Climate resource pages are designed to support justice-based climate education, to encourage child-centered climate conversations, and to offer ways to take climate action.
“In the face of climate change, hope only comes in the form of action.” ~ Jamie Margolin, 17, Zero Hour Founder
