OPERATION CLIMATE
Empowering the next generation of climate storytellers, educators, and creatives.
ABOUT US
We are Operation Climate: an environmental education non-profit organization created by young people, for young people. Our mission is to modernize the environmental education that exists in public high schools today, and to empower young people in educating themselves and others around them about the climate crisis and its intersections. We do this through the creation and distribution of digital media resources for use in classroom settings and through our volunteer internship program for high schoolers. We strive to create and support the next generation of climate communicators, storytellers, educators, and creatives in order to facilitate more action and understanding surrounding the climate crisis.
OUR WORK
Operation Climate is a podcast made by young people, for young people, where we break down environmental issues through conversations with cool people. Real high school and college students interview world renowned scientists, scholars, activists, business leaders, artists, and more, in order to deeply understand a variety of climate issues and how young people can take action in the climate movement.
We engage directly with youth through our high school summer climate communication internship program. Students create digital multimedia climate storytelling & research projects, all while learning about climate issues, activism, climate communication, and college & career readiness through guest speaker events and workshops.
Our Ambassador Program provides an opportunity for graduated interns to practice the skills they've learned in real-world, impactful projects. In order to help translate their training into action, ambassadors meet with a mentor at least once a month to help develop creative initiatives within their own local communities.
