Learn how climate change impacts Maine’s ocean and coastline and what you can do about it in this six-part participatory online series! This program is free for Maine youth aged 13 – 18 and will occur weekly on Zoom from 6:00-7:30 p.m. on Wednesdays February 28 – April 3, 2024.
We’ll start by grounding ourselves in the science and data of Maine’s changing oceans: rising sea levels, warming temperatures, ecological changes, and other coastal climate impacts. The majority of the program will focus on climate justice and taking action, such as telling your story, engaging in the legislative process, community organizing, and other ways YOU can get involved as an advocate for Maine’s ocean and climate. Youth leaders in Maine’s climate justice movement will facilitate this program.
