Join Constitution Marsh Audubon Center for a free Youth Climate Summit! The Youth Climate Summit is a high-energy conference focused on climate action and civic engagement for youth, empowering students to explore climate impacts and develop community based solutions.

This workshop series aims for students to learn about climate science and create change in their school and community by making a Climate Action Plan (CAP). This weekend session program is to occur on Zoom on Saturday, October 19th from 9:00 AM - 12:00 PM.

Organizers are also asking students to commit to an in-person field day on Sunday, October 20th, with a rain date of October 26th. The field day will consist of talking about your CAP’s with others and participating in activities such as planting native trees/plants, removing invasive species at various locations! More details to come on field locations.

The Youth Climate Summit is open to ALL school cohorts, afterschool and other extracurricular groups, and individual students in 9th through 12th grade. Under Audubon's wing, students will learn climate science, attend interactive workshops, build cohorts with peer-to-peer learning, and create Climate Action Plans (CAP) to be implemented in their schools and communities.

Organizers ask that cohorts have teachers or advisors that can assist students during the Climate Action Planning process. They ask that you commit to both days, as they are building blocks to the CAP. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out: cmacs@audubon.org.
