Climate Generation: Advancing Climate Action through Education, Public Engagement and Youth Leadership
Abstract: In order to accelerate and implement action on climate change Climate Generation takes a multi-faceted approach. We are building public will for strong climate action at the local and state level; preparing educators and their students to understand the problem and implement clean energy solutions; and pushing our decision-makers to do the right thing via pressure from their constituents, including youth, who can effectively articulate equitable policy solutions and hold officials accountable.
