Attention high school students in grades 9-12 -- you are invited to a unique opportunity to learn about climate change and how to advocate for your future!

Join Audubon for a free virtual Youth Climate Summit workshop series to learn about climate science and create change in your school and community by making a Climate Action Plan (CAP). The weekend session program is to occur on Saturday, Oct. 19, via Zoom and an in-person field day on Sunday, Oct. 20.

Brought to you by Constitution Marsh Audubon Center and Sanctuary, this interactive conference will allow students to explore climate change, its impacts, and community solutions. Participants will work in teams to design their own Climate Action Plans to put to work in their schools and communities. Through science exploration, action planning, and interactive workshops, students will gain a greater understanding of climate change and how to make a difference while engaging in a peer-to-peer education environment.

The Youth Climate Summit is open to all school cohorts, afterschool, and other extracurricular groups. We also welcome individual students to attend. However, we would like students to be affiliated, or register, with an advisor from a school or environmental organization as this can help with the implementation of the CAP’s after the Summit is completed.

The program is free – pre-registration is required through a school advisor. Email CMACS@audubon.org or 845-702-3603.
