Youth Write for Climate: Our First-Ever Official Campaign for High School Students

Around the world, the climate kids are rallying for Earth's future. Aside from striking and protesting, we also want to tell the stories of our lived experiences from all corners of the globe. 

Join us by writing about one of the topics below: 

  • the environment you live in
  • how climate has impacted you & your community
  • effects of your country’s environmental policies
  • the youth climate movement in your area 
  • what you want to tell those making decisions
Climate change affects young people’s lives in many different ways. There is no one climate story.

TELL YOURS! 

The top 03 writers will be awarded a month-long mentorship with Climate Tracker and recognized as possibly our youngest-ever online fellows. Top 10 articles will be republished on our webpage. 

Deadlines: 

July 20: Upscaling Deadline

One-on-one support provided upon demand for topics with the most potential. If your second article is published, you can re-submit and have both pieces considered for the final deadline. We take into account the impact factor of your publication
