ABOUT
Climate change and environmental justice are among the most pressing issues of our time. On the basis of these shared beliefs, the event hosts are convening the Climate and Clean Energy Youth Forum 2021 on March 8, 2021 to engage students and young professionals with regional and national climate leaders, New Hampshire’s congressional delegation, scientists, business leaders, and environmental justice champions
Our goals are to:
