It’s a wrap! We’ve marveled at the beauty and power of nature, discovered actions that can reverse climate change and perhaps made a new friend or two. Now it’s time to use “The Power of We” to celebrate the closing of our 9th season. First, watch a short, award-winning Young Filmmakers Contest animation for inspiration. Then, more than a dozen action partners will offer more opportunities to up your climate action game and dive deeper into the issues. Plus, enjoy drinks and bites, and mix and mingle.
