Children and Young Adults

It’s never too early, or late, to start and learn about and appreciate the environment around us and what we can do to improve it. And with young role models like Greta Thunberg, among many others, who has become a respected international environmental activist, there’s plenty of reason to be optimistic that young people really can be our climate champions.
