Student Presentations about Youth Activist Leaders - Fall 2022
Climate change is a big issue, but when we get people working together in our communities, we’re capable of big solutions, too. Changes we make to reduce our own carbon footprints are a great start — but when we connect with others to work on solutions together, we can build a more sustainable future for everyone. Here are some ideas for how to get involved.
The ocean is the heart of our planet’s climate system
The ocean is the heart of our planet’s climate system
From coral reefs to the deep sea, the ocean is feeling the effects of climate change. These impacts affect us too — through sea level rise, more intense storms and droughts and reduced seafood catches.
But it's not too late. Working together, we can reduce our reliance on fossil fuels, slow climate change and adapt to the impacts already in motion.
Understand the ocean’s role in climate change and how we can all take action to protect the ocean.
