Youth and climate: a call to action

We hope to take your ideas and concerns and turn them into an election focused youth campaign. Young people need to be taking action on things that are important to them, and we’d like to show you how you can be most effective. Big ideas need short term action to make them happen, so the workshop will plan for a 2010 time line.
