At the October Rep Council, SDEA representatives heard from Youth v. Oil representatives and voted to endorse a resolution supporting the Polluters Pay Climate Superfund Act and Campaign.
How can educators & their students get more involved?
Youth4Climate is a youth-led program under climate action non-profit SanDiego350. Our mission is to empower youth to become climate leaders working together for an equitable, sustainable, and resilient future. We have weekly zoom planning calls, a Youth4Climate Summit every March, an annual trip to Sacramento, paid internships, volunteer leadership roles, and much more. All students can get community service hours. Our Youth v. Oil team works on climate legislation and policy, meets with elected officials, passes city council resolutions, and writes their own legislation proposals. Any youth in middle school and high school in San Diego County are welcome to join, just sign up here. You can also email our Youth Program Manager mcgarrah@sandiego350.org if you have any questions.
