Through Teen Climate Council, teens are stewards for the ocean, the climate, and coastal communities. Teens channel their ingenuity to explore the diverse pathways with which people of all ages can be stewards.
Teen Climate Council has created children’s books, art pieces, outreach events, short films, and much more; all of which have contributed to their goals of inspiring change and improving their communities’ connections to the environment and conservation. Through their efforts, ocean and climate communication becomes more accessible, helping make climate action possible for a larger audience.
