Read What Teachers and Students Have to Say

Student Leadership for Change

"We live in a time on planet Earth when education regarding how to live sustainably, think critically and make accurately informed decisions is paramount! The SLC program freely enables teachers to get this education to students in a manner that is current, engaging and flexible to many needs and situations! Thank you" - Heather Coey, High School Teacher

Water is Life

“The workshop was very valuable. It showed us the power of the collective and how if we all contribute that our impact really makes a difference. I find so many climate conversations go negative, but [BTCEA] facilitated such an uplifting and positive view that made us feel empowered and capable. Definitely fueled some great ongoing conversations and actions.” - Teacher Participant

“I found it eye opening to learn a different side of climate justice. It changed my view on how not everyone is at fault equally and how not everyone is affected equally... I think this workshop can be useful to many and I hope others can learn too!” - Student Participant

Youth Habitat Cleanups

During the 2024-2025 year, 92% of Habitat Cleanup Participants reported wanting to take further action to support the natural world after their workshop!

Youth Climate Ambassadors

“I was most impressed by how the workshop allowed students to explore their emotions surrounding climate change and discuss these with both their peers and the facilitators, who were just a few years older than them. With many students struggling with the emotional and psychological burden of climate change, these workshops are timely and important.” - Alain Roule, High School Teacher

CARE: Climate, Action, Resilience & Emotions

"My students went from not knowing much about climate change before this presentation, to being able to identify what climate change is, what causes it and some of the things they can do to feel empowered for positive change. It has been a great experience having BTCEA in my class!" - Christina Scrivner, Elementary School teacher

Youth for Climate Justice

“Before we started with Y4CJ I felt very small, only one person with big ambitions that didn't know what to do. After the program feel like I can take initiative and make an impact. Even if it just in the school, I can make a difference in my community!” - Isabella, Y4CJ Participant
